Ain't Google awesome?

I found an S4 today in Google Streetview also. It's the car my new/used engine came out of, parked in front of the salvage yard. I bought the engine, seats and steering wheel, so if anyone needs anything else, give em a call....

(the S4 the engine is going into (see Just bought a TBF thread) is also in Google, parked in the previous owners driveway in San Antonio visible in Satellite photos.)

How long were you searching before finding a random 928 via Google maps in Australia?

ONly just noticed this thread having been incommunicado for a couple of days. Reading through it I was going to post that it wouldn't have been parked there as it is very definitely a no parking area.

I don't recognise the car - wonder whose it is? I haven't seen it at any of the 928 local gatherings. Late S4 with painted wing and original wheels would be relatively unusual around here.
