WOW ! yes I did actually . you are posting this for someone that is not good with computers . And the details that you know are listed . I would assume that i would look for a pic from you , the computer savvy person that is posting the car for sale , versus asking the person that is not good with computers to email me one .

I doubt she would be able to do that...she doesn't live near me and I have never actually seen the car either.
she is supposed to be taking some pics that she will mail to me, I will scan them and then post them, if and when I get them from her..
I know it isn't our normal operating procedures, but this is a nice older German lady and I am just trying to help her with the limited resources I have been given.

Depending upon where in the 650 area code she is (I have an office in Redwood City) I might be able to go by and see the car and take some pictures and give all of us a better feeling for the condition of the car.

This seems like a sweet ride for sure. Defiantly the most desirable model and year. However, 382K is a scary number, but as a newcomer to these cars, I'm not sure of the ramifications of this kind of mileage. Maybe it's not a big deal.

Think about it -
as a DD 10-15k per year is the national average range, so 10k/yr x 38 yrs = 380k
... so this is just about dead on!

I put about 130k on mine as a DD 12/75 - 5/85 & my only car for most of that time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

The trouble with 5 digit odometers is that they invite liars, and the trouble with old school cable speedometers/odometers that can easily be reset or run backwards is that they invite cheaters! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Our 914's qualify as both! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

IMHO - don't believe anything under 10k per year (or more) unless there is a clear & unbroken chain of service/maint./etc. documents clearly showing the progression of mileage to the claimed current level - period. Otherwise assume that there is at least a "1" or "2" in front of a claimed <100k miles - if not more!

One last thought - a constantly used & continuously maintained vehicle will generally be in far better mechanical shape, than one that has sat unused as a barn find, or with very limited use as a garage queen. Same is true for any mechanical device/machinery. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

You've got to give credit to the current owner for actually using & enjoyning her 914! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif)

This could be a really great 914 - pending a PPI, test drive & check-out by a knowledgeable 914 mechanic.

Not in the VIN database yet, perhaps if someone does a PPI, they can get the rest of the information... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

She sounds like an interesting person. How many of us can say we put that many miles on a 914? Would love to see a picture just for curiosity's sake.

sorry about some of the pics...it must be the German School of Photography (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
