i just watched another episode of this show and realize that the show that will air on the 24th, is likely to include the clip that i had seen on youtube some time ago where a guy named Alex Riley drives a Red 928 S4 sport (or CS, i forget which) and talks about the car. If you've ever seen the clip you will know which one im talking about. The show has a girl start the show profiling some classic sports car, then a guy named Bob China (or something China) talks about a car, then there is a geezer that goes to an auto show of some sort and then the last guy drives a cheap classic sports car.

Its an ok show. This channel also airs the wheeler dealer series and autotrader which are interesting too and if you have time on your hands worth checking out.

The channel is mostly all HD car and aircraft shows

Great segment on the 928 (it looked like a '88 s4 Club Sport, was it the real deal?).

But "Not for girls???" Oh boy, those guys are in trouble...

Cheers, Jim

its an "S4 Sport", the precursor to the GT. I think its a UK only market model.

I know its been a few years since the last post on this thread, but I have just bought the 928 Sport (SE) featured on this show, I did have the show recorded a couple of years ago but deleted it in error some time ago, now I have bought the car (but yet to import it into Australia) I was wondering if anyone can advise how I can get a copy of the show (no longer on youtube I see)
Just to confirm, it is one of the 42 cars manufactured for the UK market in 1988
Cheers

For those of you still interested in this show, I have a selfmade dvd with both wheeler dealer's episodes and the aforementioned classic car club show featuring the Audi RS2, Lamborghini Countach, and off course the red 928S4. The dvd is in PAL and don't expect HD quality. With dutch undertitles.

A funny story about this show: This show happened to be aired around the time I started looking for my car. So my wife wanted to watch it too, to see why I was so obsessed with the car, and I guess to see what was soon going to be parked in our driveway.

Anyway, the 928 segment starts and its 90% positive. All the things we know about these cars: they're still great performers, undervalued for what they are, etc.

Then he gets to the interior and says something like "and the dials were large for fat American fingers."

My wife are I were both, what the hell was that about? Hilarious. "I'm driving this great car. Also, Americans are fat."

ha ha ha .
