PPI recommendations
Hi,
My first post here. It seems a bit dead in this regional section, but I’m hopeful someone may reply.
I’ve found a 928 I’d like to purchase. I’m looking for recommendations for someone who knows a lot more about 928s than I do for a very thorough pre-purchase inspection. The car is in the midlands.
It’s far from a concourse example, but I’m not in the market for that. I want a car that is more affordable for me currently, and I can slowly turn into a respectable example that could be used comfortably daily and for some long distance driving trips if I desired to.
Essentially - what I’m looking for before my full purchase of the car is a thorough inspection of the car with a detailed list of (all) of the work that would need to be done to bring it up to a fully functioning, very decent example that I could comfortably use daily and for long driving trips if I wished. Ideally, with the list being in order of most vital work and an estimated cost next to each item. I’d use this to inform final purchase price and to plan out a timeframe for the work to be done within the budget I have
Cheers,
C

It does seem a bit quiet here! Sorry I can't help much, but these might be useful:
928 Repairs and Engine Rebuilds (928specialists.co.uk) - list of top 10 common issues to look out for
911uk.com - Porsche Forum : View topic - 928 GTS project - Interesting thread from MC tracking his progress with a recently acquired 928
Beyond that, I'd suggest calling around any independent garages in the vicinity to see if they'd be willing to do a PPI for you. You'll find a list here: 911uk.com - Porsche Forum : service & repair & some reviews here: 911uk.com - Porsche Forum : View Forum - Independent Porsche Dealer Garage REVIEWS
