HI, just posting a few pix of my new car!

[LotusExcelSA]

the later 928's are really cool

but gotta change the steering wheel, go to the Momo website and see if you can find a nice replacement

i wouldn't bother myself, car looks great from the back in that colour!

super cool!

Very very nice, oh and do not change that steering wheel!

[rawky]

The things I'm thinking having done are maybe a rear muffler bypass, possibly some Turbo II wheels. A few things need fixing first, should all be straight forward

[cozzmik]

what a great looking car.not to many nice ones around now.great colour,very very jelous.

[Forthright MC]

that does look a tidy example, to you sir!

have been along time admirer of these, and TBH one of only a few Porsche's i could get excited about!

enjoy!

I maybe young.....but....I can't think of anything beyond wanting to keep the car completely stock and authentic

maybe a more modern porsche steering wheel would suffice?

[tali1]

Keep it ORIGINAL.
Ain't seen a 928 far ages , and never beyond a H plate - even though they went up to M -reg
Nice number plate and colour aswell.Can't recall seeing a blue interior before

[BlueCello]

I'm a BIG Porsche fan, but these are still my favorite. Nice motor

[stockver]

good looking car, neighbour used to have a black one when i was young, infatuated with the headlight motion; needs a new drivers seat by evidence presented though

[norman156]

Very nice, love 928s. Has an interesting interior colour

Possibly mate, but part of the fun of these cars is the retro interiors with bizarre colour combos

Im with you mate. My cars old and I had to get a nice Momo on there, much better.

The standard wheels arnt cheap, i was thinking about changing mine in the 944. Looked up the price at the stock replacement was supprised!

Nice car

[v6_cougar_london]

I still think these are one of the best looking cars ever made. Gorgeous example

[Jon944S2]

What a beautiful car, I think the 928s are possibly the best looking cars ever. I drove a black GTS a while back and they are quite nice to drive too and looks stunning in dark colours.

I have had a couple, a nice early S1 in white and a later S4. Both were autos and well suited to that nutty engine that pulls like a truck but revs like a motorcycle. A very underated car IMO and I got a lot of stick about it not being air-cooled but hey it can hang with the best of them

DO keep the cooling system tip top. I would replace the water pump when you do the cambelt at any given oportunity as well as any suspect looking hoses. Mine threw a hose on the motorway and by the time I had noticed, it had overheated and cooked the engine. The car was taken to a well known main dealer on the M4 into London, and resulted in a £5k top end rebuild. This was by comparison to yours, an early car and not worth the cost of the rebuild but was a labour of love. I lost big time when I sold that car but would wager that I had more than enough fun out of it bang for buck.

Also had my rear window smashed resulting on a two-week wait from Autoglass as they didn't have any in the UK with the right colour tint, so it had to come from Stutgart.. £900 but covered on insurance so not so bad.

I keep watching the late S4GT's and the prices are varied - some are starting around the £12k mark, ranging up to the £20k mark for a late manual which is the best spec IMO. Mileage seems to be the cncerning factor but with full history those engines are good for star-ship meleage.

As the early ones have a propensity to not be looked after properly, they are starting to get thin on the ground which is good if you own one that has been looked after. I will definately be looking for another one when the opportunity presents itself.

Lovely looking car btw and I hope it gives you as much pleasure as mine did
