New to 928 - soon to buy?
Gents-
I'm warming to the idea of a 928 that I can put some miles on as a warm weather daily driver. I consider myself pretty strong technically and have been successful putting a 1990 BMW 525i back on the road (175k miles) as well as all maintenance on 1999 MB C280. Well in my wheelhouse of capability:
- anything suspension / brakes
- top end engine work, heads off, valve train rebuilds, etc.
- all other mechanicals and auxiliary systems - timing belts, water pumps, etc.
- basic electrical
- clutch replacement
Wrenchin' is my hobby, so I'm not looking for a hand's off pretty baby. I want the fun to drive but satisfaction of keeping her on the road.
Before I dive in:
- there's no Bentley for 928, any other manuals you guys work from?
- anything a DIY guy should be afraid of? My automotive motto is "Be fearless"
- availability of parts? How are prices?
- forum view regarding price range for a 4.6L or 5.0L 5-spd with good paint and interior in driving condition?
Any advise you want to offer??
