Hi guys,

It's a real pleasure for me to make all your acquaintances and to see that there are more and more people getting interested in our loved one - the SHARK. Today we had about 25 C (weather) - really strange weather conditions in October and I told myself to wake up my 928 and to do some 200 KMs tomorrow !!!

While seeing Andy from Austria drifting away, I feel on one side so proud, but on the other side so nervous to push and squeeze everything out of this bloody damned car...

Speak to you soon,

Marc



On Nov 15th I'll put it definitively to the Wintersleep and

I have the same seats in my '81 Euro, though the PO did a poor job recovering them. Not sure if they are OE. Mine are brown with tan centers.


BTW welcome to the forum. Lots of great info and help here.

Hello.
@Nicole,
it is "felsengrünmetallic" and inside the furniture has the same colour with the original Sport seats, the shark is a 928 S4, the fourtysecond that was produced, made in 09.1986 without automatic transmission, and about 130.000km.
The special of my car is the loud exaust, because it is in the middle an empty GT exhaust and at the back an empty GTS exhaust. Not so good for the police, but very good for the ears.
Sorry, my english is not so good, but i began just learning it again, then i hope you could read my terrible grammer.
Today we had 26°C and so i could drive a little bit. Last year it was even colder and we had snow. I hope that you are looking skiing.

Hallo Marcolino, ich hab mich zu dir dazugeschummelt, war ein super Tip von dir. Danke.

Nice greetings from Austria and good night (it is 01:50).
Andi

Hi Andi:

I assume you don't have a TÜV in Austria... Sounds great about your exhaust! And your interior must be greygreen (graugrün), which is very close to the Felsengrün metallic. I just saw a 928 like this at Sharktoberfest this past weekend, and it's a very beautiful color combo!

26 Degrees is about what we had today in the San Francisco Bay Area. But I'm happy to hear you guys don't have to freeze, either... Yes, skiing, I remember all those great trips to Austria when I was still living in Europe.

Well, I'm gald to have you and Marcolino here! If you ever run into a problem understanding, feel free to send me a private message, and I'll try to help as good as I can.

@Nicole
We have a TÜV in Austria, but you must check the car every year not at the TÜV, you could take every carworkshop and then the car must checkt. If everything is o.k. you get a "Grünes Pickerl" sticker on the right upper side of the windshield. This cost about €23.-. If the examiner is a good friend you have no problem to get the sticker, but you must look at the police, because they could cancle it when something is wrong ore not allowed on the car. Always driving carefully in towns, but in the country there is no problem, and our towns in Austria are even smaller. Austria has only 8.000.000 people.
So i go to bed. Nice day.

Andi.
