Cars that haven't been driven in years are money pits and the starting issues are the tip of the iceberg. Non starting is generally only expensive to fix on CIS cars, but until it starts you can't know what else is wrong.
Forget the notion of common problems, or the 3 things you need to check etc., its a pointless assumption of condition.
PPI, Pre Purchase Inspection checking a 100+ things is what a 928 requires. It is the ONLY reliable way to find out how much and what sort of work the car needs to have done to it.
Timing belts are NOT an issue, they are routine preventive maintenance. Trouble is some owners buy a running car and drive it into the ground fixing nothing until it doesn't run, of if they are smart selling it 5 minutes prior to it not running. The only reliable fix is to catch up ALL of the deferred maintenance.
