|
| Hiya just signed up as im 21 on the 14th feb i finally get to drive and own a 924s. I know the history of the car as it was my dads and before that my aunt and uncle's. Its just got a new starter at a porsche specalist and a general check over, as it hasnt been driven apart from on and off the drive since march (due to huge insurance for male under 21) when it was relegated by an RX-8. Ive been driving a 57bhp 2002 corsa life since before i passed 3 years ago and can wait to get out of a front wheel drive hatchback! Im a uni student (commence booing) and i cant wait to park next to a pimped-up golf and feel so much better off. Its a 1986 924s with 150hp when it was new with approx 80-90k on the clock (unknown due to broken odometer). I just wanted to say hi, and if anyone has any tips or advice plz do tell! Thanks for your time, Rich |

Welcome! You'll find a few 924S friends around here. They are very nice cars. Most of the chatter here is about old iron 76-82 924's and 931's. My best advice would be to enjoy the car and change your cam belt often!

You might not feel so well off when the Golf blows your doors off!  
Welcome to the 'board, mate. Hope you enjoy the car. You've got the best of 'em with the 924S... well, except maybe a Turbo, like mine

Cue gohim's introductory speech - frankly, I wish guys like him had been around when I got my '44!
Welcome to the gang - this site has an area dedicated to the 924S and some very savvy cats post here.

Rich: Welcome to the party. Be sure, when you get a chance, to post your location. That way when you need help, there may be someone close by that can lend a hand. Also helps explain the "wanker" and "knackered" terminology, something you'll get used to using real soon if you don't change the timing belt. 
Good Luck!
