I owned a manual 1992 928 GT for 2 years and stupidly sold it before I went overseas. I miss that car.... I find myself watching these videos and realising I miss it more than any of my ex girlfriends.
I've owned my 928S (manual) since 1988, use to use it as an everyday driver till the late 90'S were it became the second car and used for special events and trips, around 2000 the car was use very infrequent and went into dry storage. I still own it now and am currently having the 928S bought back to life and hope to have her back on the road next year. Fingers crossed
As a Space-Age enthusiast, this is my all-time favorite car design (along with the XJ 220). What a beauty. Glorious V8 sound too. What an underrated car. Fabulous.
Looked like a space ship coming down from the future into 1978 amidst ANY other car from that era. I remember being in awe seeing it at the age of 12. It was rare, only for the rich and famous, or on TV, and with one of those your were the Man. For the kids we were, nothing would beat it.
Hello Harry! Wonderful choice to pick the 928. I am a German expat in Taiwan and last year I found a 928 S4 with original 32.000 miles in mint condition. I now enjoy driving the 928 here on this beautiful island. Greetings from Taiwan
A friend of mine who had an S4 discribed his 928 like this: The pace of a Ferrari - the comfort a Bentley and the reliability of a Mercedes Diesel I think that nails the 928 perfectly. As I‘m more into watches and looked a few of your videos, I see you wear this Panarei quite a lot - lovely piece of craftsmanship, but quite a hefty big thing...
Thought it was going to be a sad snowy day here in Oregon......but, no. A video from Harry, a cup of coffee and now I'm good. Great guest too, obviously knowledgeable.
Harry was into that 928 roaring through the countryside, and Joel with him, thoroughly enjoying it. The engine sounds fantastic, the manual stick shift provides the visceral control over the powerful V8, it's an amazing car, it's a Porsche and a joy forever.
I like the idea of inviting people on, very Jay Leno and that’s no bad thing. I thought the owner very good and passionate. Loved the car and interesting to find out a bit more about it. 1400 kg and 320 bhp, very respectable even now.👌
It's very Jay Leno, but with enough of its own flavour to be its own thing. The setting of the rattly steel barn and the rainy English roads won't be mistaken for LA any time soon.
Superb. I've been absolutely obsessed with the 928 since 1979. I really wish I'd pushed the boat out a bit and bought the black S4 I was tempted by, ten years or so ago. Hindsight is such a curse.
@@Dingolfing I'll never understand the argument that if a comment is past a certain age that any response to it becomes moot. I need to stop writing controversial or argumentative comments on my mobile device. It only gets me in trouble.
I owned one of these in a manual for about 8 years, it was a great car, so comfortable, you could drive a thousand miles, then get back in and do another thousand with no back ache at all. It actually had a passive rear steering system which was unheard of at that time. Thanks for the memories.
Porsche offered these engines with twin turbos rated at 750ps as a create engines to the offshore powerboating fraternity, guaranteed by the factory to last a season, unheard of in the early 90's.
Beautiful car. Fell in love with this car when I first saw one blow by us on the beltway as a kid in the 80's. My Dad saw it coming in the rear view and said "check out this Porsche getting ready to pass us" lol
Fabulous review Harry. I had one of the GTS versions back when I lived in the US. One of my friends had a BMW 850sci - fabulous car - and another friend: Steve had a 1996/7 993 turbo S. Many fond memories. I regret selling my 928. I've owned a dozen cars in my life and this was the absolute most reliable car I've ever owned. Aside from regular maintenance, I had to replace the windshield wiper motor. Fabulous car.... Absolutely fabulous....
I always love this car since I first saw it 36 years ago, A black one in front of a hotel entrance in New York, winter time in the evening. That car shined the hole avenue. Awesome channel!
Best car review vid I've seen. And I'm not a big Porsche fan in general, though this one is a no brainer. As the owner says, the V8 and manual gearbox are a classic combination. But what I really admire is how they separated the engine and the box to optimise the weight disrtibution. Far better than the 911 layout which I've really never liked. Your vids are in general also better than anything ever on TV. Well done Harry and team. Very professional. I'm sure I recognise that part of the country too. Great roads.
absolutely - to pull up next to an Aston Martin in (at least) the 928 S4 is not a feeling of 30+ years difference...these 928 S4+ do still look really modern; which, interestingly, I've heard harms their value in that they don't look 'vintage' !
As a car enthusiast, I think it’s great to see others really being so passionate about their cars, which your guest clearly is about his. Love what he’s done with it too. He’s made the 928 that it always should have been. Keep the videos coming!
Bravo Sir Harry, nice vid and congrats to the owner! A good friend of mine's dad had a brown one and we used to play inside it thinking it was Back To The Future's car. That sweet 8cil... it's been 30 or so years since I havent heard that. As always, thanks for the post.
Great car although to be fair we'd expect nothing less from Mr Metcalfe. After mentioning them you MUST do videos on the Carrera GT and the DS convertible. Also greetings from Galway Ireland!
I've always liked the way these look and loved the way they sound. This is probably the best early car that I have seen in a while and I very much enjoyed the ride a long!
Terrific video Harry. Needless to say this type of video could be a feature occasionally. You've already got cars you can use (the runners up?) and if the other owners are as knowledgeable as this one, it could be an interesting break from the great videos you already do. BTW, I hope the guys at Porsche are watching, this is the car the 928 always wanted to be! Great work again Harry.
Another great video Harry. The strange thing is, here in the states, people have always compared the 928 to a Corvette, when actually it's more like a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am.
Thanks Harry. Really informative video and a lovely example of the 928. I first became aware of the 928 when I was off sick from primary school in 1979 and there was a children's science programme on the TV talking about the flexible rear bumper. It seemed almost space age! I've only owned 914 and 924 myself but still hope to have a 911 some day. Anyway, thank you to the owner for putting this car forward for review.
that car was the car of my dreams as a kid..ive been lucky enough to have driven a few and there is something Magical abt them and a certain feeling of awe comes with it...as a kid i remember feeling "I cant believe they are letting me out alone in this!" granted they were all well used but still, it was a treat racing that brute up to the redline and being Oh so attentive to the odd ratios gates so as not to look llike a boob as u left the dealership...cool memories! this one here sounds so very sweet and is a beast in the power dept...the automatics were soft on the bottom and didnt feel that strong till in the upper midrange
Just yesterday I saw a 928 at the tip, the owner had the rear down and it was full of recycling stuff... so good to see one being used like that. that's how the Swiss roll.
Good guest presenting Joel. My favourite car ever. I was sold on them when walking through London as a teenager,a 928s in guards red cruised by me with the plate 928 S.
This is pretty much the perfect 928... A great choice to review. 21:04 The owner's fixed smile through The Cotswold Eau Rouge was wonderful, "interesting camber" indeed!
The BMW E31 first came on the market in 1989 and at that time the Porsche 928 had been on the market for 11-12 years. The main competitor for 928 was therefore cars like the BMW E24 and not least Jaguar XJS.
Great profile 👍. I was happy to see you point out some of the revolutionary features of this car, and that you also put them in perspective by indicating what it's competitors had or didn't. It would be great to see you do the same for the 959 😉! At the 25 min mark, the look in your face was 'I have to get me one of these'!
What a lovely sounding engine. I hear that the besides the Porsche being a quality piece of engineering and a pleasure to work on, all the parts are still available...
Good to see a 928 represented with such a perfect specification. Years ahead of the 911 in 1978 as a manual with the right power plant and better fuel injection. I truly love the 911 but this was a badly missed opportunity.
Haha yes, great spot! Definitely a favourite Harry video of mine, never have I learned so much about the 928. Joel clearly super-engaging and ridiculously knowledgable too. This viewer's car thingy should certainly be at least an annual event. One more thing: Joel should stop doing whatever he does for work and set up his own RUclips channel immediately.
I'm not a Porsche fan, and I have particular disdain for the 928. But damn, the reason I'm subbed to this channel is for cars like these. Hero car indeed, nice choice mate.
I had a cut-away drawing poster of one of these on my bedroom wall when they came out -I was 10 years old. They were like nothing else at the time (my father had a Ford Escort Mk.2 company car at the time, which was archaic in comparison lol) & I still love the front / rear styling now.
I'm glad the 928 is finally being realised as a classic by collectors. They have gone up in value in recent years. I was thinking of converting an auto 928 to a manual 928. I would like you to review a 928 GTS. I'm tossing up between purchasing a Corvette C4, Z32 300ZX TT or a Porsche 928 - all great GT cars.
Working outside the UK again. Another Harry video with my first coffee this morning. It doesn't get any better, thanks! (It does actually, when I'm at home working on or, driving my own car at home). Nice to have met you Harry at Hampton court. Cheers
Really good film, you're always a passionate and articulate man Harry, but the owner was great too. Just a pure enthusiast, knowledgeable, yet very humble and likeable. Really enjoyed this.
Nice video and great guest. I would have dared to ask what Harry thought of technical comparisons to Testarossa and Countach. There were great comparison articles written of these cars back in the day; as well as the Aston Martin V8, XJ-S and Mercedes SL500. Great era of engineering and I'm a very happy 928 S4 owner today. Thanks Harry !
EU headlights? Check. Phone dial wheels? Check. The Car of the Year decal? Check. 5 speed? Check. First version V8 spider intakes? Check. And #1-- PASHA TRIM!! Unfortunately the leather dashes shrunk in 2 years and pulled away at the openings. This car is the greatest design for a sports GT of all time...it has one innovation after another, and looks incredible to this day.
Nice job with the audio. The dialog is clear with minimal road noise, allowing the wonderful roar of the engine to debut at 19:20. The last clip is great.
Great video......Harry looked like he was having fun......the owner looked nervous through the bends ....."interesting camber"..... or maybe it was the Range Rover that was stalking then thoughout the video. Either way an early manual 928 is very attractive and has child seats too!
Had a poster of this on my bedroom wall 40 years ago, love this guy for keeping it going. Had an RC model when I was ten, in Martini racing colours, which suggests they were raced but may well have been a marketing thing.
Fabulous car and most knowledgeable owner. I had three, ending with a 92 GTS manual which was breathed on by Porsche U.K. who managed with different cams and a straight through exhaust to liberate about another 35bhp and additional torque but I sadly traded eventually for the 993 Turbo. Yes they had a bit of a thirst, but what performance cars in those days didn’t but the 928 was a really practical vehicle for space and grace as demonstrated by Harry. I can well remember being slightly awed with my first when reading the manual to operate the cruise control which gave an example setting at 150mph! Obviously not guidance for U.K. territory. I hope we will see more from Harry along these lines
Still a great looking car. When they came out I was 10 years old & it blew me away at the time with it's avantgarde styling & body coloured moulded bumpers & the rear end treatment, it was different to everything else. My father's company car at the time, a Mk. 2 Escort with it's chrome bumpers looked positively archaic next to these lol. I had a cutaway drawing poster on my bedroom wall too.
Always, when you start an engine, Firstly Wait about 10 seconds, to get the Oil Pressure raised to the working level/state/pressure !!! ! !!! Thanks for the video :-)
I owned a manual 1992 928 GT for 2 years and stupidly sold it before I went overseas. I miss that car.... I find myself watching these videos and realising I miss it more than any of my ex girlfriends.
😂😂😂 I also feel the same.. Especially when my X was the person who totaled my 1987, Porsche 928
I owned a 1980 in 1997 one of the best cars there is fun be Maintaince was not bad sold it too fast and cheap should have keep it
I've owned my 928S (manual) since 1988, use to use it as an everyday driver till the late 90'S were it became the second car and used for special events and trips, around 2000 the car was use very infrequent and went into dry storage. I still own it now and am currently having the 928S bought back to life and hope to have her back on the road next year. Fingers crossed
The early 928 is just drop dead gorgeous. One of my favorite vehicles. This guy did a great job on this car.
As a Space-Age enthusiast, this is my all-time favorite car design (along with the XJ 220). What a beauty. Glorious V8 sound too. What an underrated car. Fabulous.
The 928 seat upholstery still knocks me out. I've loved this model since 1978.
Looked like a space ship coming down from the future into 1978 amidst ANY other car from that era. I remember being in awe seeing it at the age of 12. It was rare, only for the rich and famous, or on TV, and with one of those your were the Man. For the kids we were, nothing would beat it.

Andreas Dammann can I test drive your 928 in Taiwan ? If you know me ? Drop me a line!thanks
A friend of mine who had an S4 discribed his 928 like this:

I think that nails the 928 perfectly.
As I‘m more into watches and looked a few of your videos, I see you wear this Panarei quite a lot - lovely piece of craftsmanship, but quite a hefty big thing...
As a watch and car guy, I loved the drive in the 928 and also noticed the Panerai on Harry's left wrist. Both the car and watch are beautiful beasts.
Porsche 928 - say no more! A true performance classic. Timeless design with superb V8 grunt and sound. Thank you Harry.
Harry, you really need to make viewer car reviews a channel regular. This was great.
Thought it was going to be a sad snowy day here in Oregon......but, no. A video from Harry, a cup of coffee and now I'm good. Great guest too, obviously knowledgeable.
I love the 928 early types, with the alloy wheels Alfa Romeo like and the encased back lights, like the one on this show, they are the most beautiful.
yeah exacty. it reminds me of a Zagato design.
OvermarsDaria it's funny how they updated it to make it current ,and they look more dated
Harry was into that 928 roaring through the countryside, and Joel with him, thoroughly enjoying it. The engine sounds fantastic, the manual stick shift provides the visceral control over the powerful V8, it's an amazing car, it's a Porsche and a joy forever.

I agree a bit kev and rob...
It is much more conversational than a Jay monologue. Harry also knows more about cars.
Superb. I've been absolutely obsessed with the 928 since 1979. I really wish I'd pushed the boat out a bit and bought the black S4 I was tempted by, ten years or so ago. Hindsight is such a curse.
That guest is surprisingly engaging.
SmashGhost agreed. There’s a few moments where Harry’s facial expression was clearly saying ‘alright mate, don’t forget who’s channel this is’
And a few moments on the test drive when the guest's face says "Don't forget who's car this is!"
Surprisingly verbose and annoying morelike
@alanrtment porter 10 months since I made that comment and now you reply Enjoying your self isolation then....my comment still reflects my opinion.
@@Dingolfing
I'll never understand the argument that if a comment is past a certain age that any response to it becomes moot. I need to stop writing controversial or argumentative comments on my mobile device. It only gets me in trouble.
First Harry's Garage video with a talking passenger? Quite an honor! Great as always, thank you mr. Metcalfe.
I owned one of these in a manual for about 8 years, it was a great car, so comfortable, you could drive a thousand miles, then get back in and do another thousand with no back ache at all. It actually had a passive rear steering system which was unheard of at that time. Thanks for the memories.
The Weissach axle?
I have to admit Harry I was a little disappointed when my clapped out Austin Allegro estate was dismissed from the Footman James competition.
Hell, Harry would even make that mongrel interesting!
Im a huge 911 fan and now own a RS, but the 928 I had will always hold a special place in my heart. Sensational car.
What a great idea for a show! Thanks Harry. I must add that this show was better than 95% of anything else on RUclips.
Great review Harry. It is always good when the cars owner is involved in the review.
Porsche offered these engines with twin turbos rated at 750ps as a create engines to the offshore powerboating fraternity, guaranteed by the factory to last a season, unheard of in the early 90's.
What an awesome 928! That one would be a cool spy car!
Beautiful car. Fell in love with this car when I first saw one blow by us on the beltway as a kid in the 80's. My Dad saw it coming in the rear view and said "check out this Porsche getting ready to pass us" lol

Nice discretion at 21:27 with the black overlay on the spedo
Harry said he was "terrified of the locals", hummm, exceeding the speed limit Harry?
He can't help himself.
A much nicer car in the flesh than in pictures. The later ones still look fresh today, very nice indeed.
absolutely - to pull up next to an Aston Martin in (at least) the 928 S4 is not a feeling of 30+ years difference...these 928 S4+ do still look really modern; which, interestingly, I've heard harms their value in that they don't look 'vintage' !
Love the synchronised grinning when that V8 growl kicks in. A worthy guest...enjoyed it.
Thoroughly enjoyable to watch Harry.
A car ahead of it's time.

The huge smile on Harry's face as he took that S-bend speaks volumes...Grin city!
Great video Harry & very nice car Joel, i love the clean lines of these early 928's. And the crazy pasha interior too.
Great car although to be fair we'd expect nothing less from Mr Metcalfe. After mentioning them you MUST do videos on the Carrera GT and the DS convertible. Also greetings from Galway Ireland!
What a beautiful sound that engine makes
YES!
Buy an E55 from last century and that’s what’s you’ll hear when you drive it
What a treat! A car with some character and history, thanks for the ride.
I've always liked the way these look and loved the way they sound. This is probably the best early car that I have seen in a while and I very much enjoyed the ride a long!

Makes me proud to be a 1988 928 S4 5spd owner :)
These cars are really High Performance cars and better handling compared to the 911!!!
You should be indeed !
Nick Tucker
I got a 1995 928s 5spd. I love it , it is so nice, and the sound is grrrrrrrrrrr 😂👍
An amazing car (928S) that I had the pleasure of owning in the period 1985-1986. Very nice and authentic sound from the engine at 14:35 in the video.
Thanks Harry. Really informative video and a lovely example of the 928. I first became aware of the 928 when I was off sick from primary school in 1979 and there was a children's science programme on the TV talking about the flexible rear bumper. It seemed almost space age! I've only owned 914 and 924 myself but still hope to have a 911 some day. Anyway, thank you to the owner for putting this car forward for review.

Really enjoyed this Joel clearly loves it and as was harry. Liked the fact he was keen on Harry giving it a bit 👍
I've owned 2 928s, Awesome cars and very under rated.
Brilliant nostelgic review Harry. Great to see a genuine & knowledgeable owner.
Just yesterday I saw a 928 at the tip, the owner had the rear down and it was full of recycling stuff... so good to see one being used like that. that's how the Swiss roll.
Good guest presenting Joel.
My favourite car ever.
I was sold on them when walking through London as a teenager,a 928s in guards red cruised by me with the plate 928 S.
The 928, in this spec without any aero and with these wheels, is one of the best looking cars of all time.
Dylan Hoare yep! Nothing else looked like it.
This is pretty much the perfect 928... A great choice to review.
21:04 The owner's fixed smile through The Cotswold Eau Rouge was wonderful, "interesting camber" indeed!
maybe, but it's probably the Metcalfe Estate's back streets right ?
No, its the road from Charlbury to Burford. Not private. But very quiet.
Love Harry's vids, but you're right. I know those roads well, they're local. Wellied that corner far too hard...
Fell in love with this car after seeing Risky Business in the 80s.
Harry please review its main rival, the BMW 850i.
The BMW E31 first came on the market in 1989 and at that time the Porsche 928 had been on the market for 11-12 years. The main competitor for 928 was therefore cars like the BMW E24 and not least Jaguar XJS.
Kayoed Owner SCARFACE bought a 944
Kayoed is correct, it was a 928 in "Scarface", not a 944.
Weird Science. Peel out at the mall. :D
Csi*
Great profile 👍. I was happy to see you point out some of the revolutionary features of this car, and that you also put them in perspective by indicating what it's competitors had or didn't. It would be great to see you do the same for the 959 😉! At the 25 min mark, the look in your face was 'I have to get me one of these'!
Excellent video, commentary from both of you and a superb car!
Great video! Good choice of car, and Joel was an interesting co-presenter.
what a cracking little video. Loved every minute of it- love, love, love the car too. Great owner for sharing. Than
Another great film. Very knowledgeable guest.
Excellent Harry thanks one of my favourite cars, had the pleasure of driving one these in mountains of the south of France it was incredible.
Absolutely gorgeous car. Great video too, good quality sound, and the owner was well informed and informative.
Its absolutely shocking how ahead of its time, it is. With some modern wheels, it looks like a car made in the 2000's
Out of all of his videos that I've seen, this is the one that I get a kick out of watching.
Great review Harry .... great to see it being used as it should be and by such a lovely guy!!! 😎
Loved the video, learned a bit of history as well as seeing a lovely Porsche flying round the countryside.
Great pick of the 928 and review Harry. Cheers from across the pond!
What a lovely sounding engine.
I hear that the besides the Porsche being a quality piece of engineering and a pleasure to work on, all the parts are still available...
Love the 928. Everybody talks about the scary running cost though, which was part of the reason why these cars were so cheap for a long time.
Beautiful, clean lines. I love that he's resurrected it.
Good to see a 928 represented with such a perfect specification. Years ahead of the 911 in 1978 as a manual with the right power plant and better fuel injection. I truly love the 911 but this was a badly missed opportunity.
Fantastic episode Harry. I love how the owner appreciates his car @19:25. Great! I hope you decide to do more of these.
Haha yes, great spot! Definitely a favourite Harry video of mine, never have I learned so much about the 928. Joel clearly super-engaging and ridiculously knowledgable too. This viewer's car thingy should certainly be at least an annual event.
One more thing: Joel should stop doing whatever he does for work and set up his own RUclips channel immediately.
I'm not a Porsche fan, and I have particular disdain for the 928.
But damn, the reason I'm subbed to this channel is for cars like these. Hero car indeed, nice choice mate.
'There's a storm Brian outside...' Love you Harry.
Thanks Harry, thanks Joe for introducing this beautiful peace of Art and technical engineering.
My favorite Porsche. Color: lavender firemist. Gorgeous
I had a cut-away drawing poster of one of these on my bedroom wall when they came out -I was 10 years old. They were like nothing else at the time (my father had a Ford Escort Mk.2 company car at the time, which was archaic in comparison lol) & I still love the front / rear styling now.
Porsche, there is no substitute. That was a great video. Thanks Harry.
I'm glad the 928 is finally being realised as a classic by collectors. They have gone up in value in recent years. I was thinking of converting an auto 928 to a manual 928. I would like you to review a 928 GTS. I'm tossing up between purchasing a Corvette C4, Z32 300ZX TT or a Porsche 928 - all great GT cars.
Working outside the UK again. Another Harry video with my first coffee this morning. It doesn't get any better, thanks! (It does actually, when I'm at home working on or, driving my own car at home). Nice to have met you Harry at Hampton court. Cheers
Really good film, you're always a passionate and articulate man Harry, but the owner was great too. Just a pure enthusiast, knowledgeable, yet very humble and likeable. Really enjoyed this.
Who does not love the Porsche 928... “It’s quite a healthy car, isn’t it?” ROFL
Great job. Contrary of the opinion of a few people, its nice you changed a bit the format.
As schoolboys, this was our favourite. There was nothing else like it.
Nice video and great guest. I would have dared to ask what Harry thought of technical comparisons to Testarossa and Countach. There were great comparison articles written of these cars back in the day; as well as the Aston Martin V8, XJ-S and Mercedes SL500. Great era of engineering and I'm a very happy 928 S4 owner today. Thanks Harry !
EU headlights? Check. Phone dial wheels? Check. The Car of the Year decal? Check. 5 speed? Check. First version V8 spider intakes? Check. And #1-- PASHA TRIM!!
Unfortunately the leather dashes shrunk in 2 years and pulled away at the openings. This car is the greatest design for a sports GT of all time...it has one innovation after another, and looks incredible to this day.
Good to see these coming back on trend, great 80s classic - S2 in Weird Science, S4 in Chase HQ plus Risky Business.
Just a guess, 1988 and all that, rear lights look different a S2. May be wrong though?
I’m glad to see more reviews on then928, unless you drive one you really don’t know how great of a car it is. Great review Harry!!
Nice job with the audio. The dialog is clear with minimal road noise, allowing the wonderful roar of the engine to debut at 19:20. The last clip is great.
Joel should be a regular. Wonderful car. Great video.
Great video......Harry looked like he was having fun......the owner looked nervous through the bends ....."interesting camber"..... or maybe it was the Range Rover that was stalking then thoughout the video.
Either way an early manual 928 is very attractive and has child seats too!
I love your no nonsense reviews Harry 👍. Keep them coming!
Had a poster of this on my bedroom wall 40 years ago, love this guy for keeping it going. Had an RC model when I was ten, in Martini racing colours, which suggests they were raced but may well have been a marketing thing.
Excellent, Harry. Joel was great in front of the camera and very knowledgeable. Do it again and pick the convertible DS please. Great channel.
I LOVE THE 928, the light blue ones , are very pleasant to look at!
Fabulous car and most knowledgeable owner. I had three, ending with a 92 GTS manual which was breathed on by Porsche U.K. who managed with different cams and a straight through exhaust to liberate about another 35bhp and additional torque but I sadly traded eventually for the 993 Turbo. Yes they had a bit of a thirst, but what performance cars in those days didn’t but the 928 was a really practical vehicle for space and grace as demonstrated by Harry. I can well remember being slightly awed with my first when reading the manual to operate the cruise control which gave an example setting at 150mph! Obviously not guidance for U.K. territory. I hope we will see more from Harry along these lines
The 928 still looks fresh in 2022.
Cool stuff! I love 928, I need to "revisit"! - Spot on with Risky Business, that was a huge advert for them!
Still a great looking car. When they came out I was 10 years old & it blew me away at the time with it's avantgarde styling & body coloured moulded bumpers & the rear end treatment, it was different to everything else. My father's company car at the time, a Mk. 2 Escort with it's chrome bumpers looked positively archaic next to these lol. I had a cutaway drawing poster on my bedroom wall too.
This format could become its own series. Fun to watch for sure.
Always, when you start an engine, Firstly Wait about 10 seconds, to get the Oil Pressure raised to the working level/state/pressure !!! ! !!! Thanks for the video :-)
