Would you buy this 928?

[Parrot of Doom]

I can't stop thinking about 928s. I've always loved the styling, since I had a matchbox toy of one when I was a kid. They still look great.

It'd be silly for me to get one right at the moment (for various reasons), but I still keeping looking around to see what's what.

Would you buy this one (scroll down to the videos)?

From the video of him doing a "wheel spin" into a parking space, no. Not a chance.

If he is willing to show potential sellers that, think about what he could have done to it thathe isn't prepared to admit to?

[ArtVandelay]

Probably not because of the way he tries to show off in it. Nice car (even in brown!) but if the previous owner goes on like an idiot, I wouldn't be buying it.

[MGB Boy]

Think I'd double check the tread depths....

Definitely wouldn't upload those videos to my own advert though

[gog440]

I wouldnt buy this 928, last service 36k miles ago! and he only assumes that the cam belt was done, and he drives it like a tt in the video, I wouldnt touch it with a bargepole

[The Wookie]

Mmmm, 325bhp out of a standard 4.7 with new HT leads.

I suspect it's a shed, but it is cheap. If it breaks it's probably worth more in bits to all of the owners that do care about their cars.

Failing that, a nice one wouldn't be that much more expensive.

[Fleckers]

The Wheelspin has to be the most impressive burn out I have ever seen

My god didyou notice smoke
My god what a tt

Buy it for scrap

I has a white one of these for about 6 months years a go, everytime I blinked my bank account was further in the red

[Caruso]

It's not bad to want a 928, but not that one.

I used to have a 928. They cost a packet to run. Guaranteed this one will need ££££s spent on it. Cambelt is about £800 at a specialist for a start.......

Naah, any good garage can do the cambelt. Cost me £500 a few months ago. Mine has cost me very little, budget a few hundred a year to keep it on the road.

[BIG BAVARIAN]

No mention of any kind of service history/wad of receipts ,that we all like to see, no matter how eye watering,

"Last service was carried out 36,000 miles ago so I assume cam-belt was changed then."

So he assumes ,the belts been changed but not sure ??

i'd be checking the brakes and suspension,

Love those old things, but that one is best avoided .

[Garlick]

I'll have a 928 one day for sure, but I can't believe the chap thinks that video will help him sell it.

People are always turning around? Probably to see who the tt in the 928 is.

[CampDavid]

No. Buy cheap, spend a fortune on repairs, then throw away. Buy a good one and it'll last well, won't cost a huge amount to run and should be worth a tidy sum when they come back into fashion.

Not sure I could afford a cheap one

[Garlick]

You've got me looking now....

Based on the video evidence "Section 59" stop notice has been uploaded to the A.N.P.R

I owned this 928 many years ago... And when I was a bit older, saw Risky Business...and so must own one, one day.

I like his feedback too for sexy poledancing stilettos and poledancer grip stuff.

[theironduke]
