Hi Jase :)

Welcome :)

You are obviously a superior human being having bought a 928 so are more than welcome here :)

If you need any technical help, just ask.....

All the best Brett :)

Thanks for the welcome Brett, yeah I may well come back to you on the techinical advise as the previous owner has done a bucket load of work to it including new head gaskets, American spec waterpump etc etc but it still runs very hot (possible fan) and the timing appears out (you can hear it on start up) as well as it ticks over a bit high, its a lovely car and in brilliant condition for her year but I need to research the engine and cooling system a little more before I embark on trying to sniff out the faults.

Hi there.
You can't beat a silver 928.
One of my all time favourites and still on my 'List of cars I will own'!
Is it an Auto or manual?

Hi Jase

I'm normally in the south east but driven the porker down to the south west for the week :bounce:
There are some great driving roads down this way and am having a lot of fun :twisted:
