Are we speaking the same language?, Trying to buy a 914 Options

[David Stowers]

Hi All,
Ive been trying to buy a 914 fore some months now and am getting really frustrated.
On two occasions I thought Id agreed a deal with sellers here and then from that stage nothing, no emails nothing.
Am I missing something here? I accept that as an overseas buyer people may rather deal with someone local but all I need is to be told thats whats going on. Instead its as if the seller has gone to jail or something and lost access to email or been abducted by aliens!
I guess it may work differently between US and UK but surely if someone changes their mind its not a big deal to let me know?
Rant over, anyone selling an 914, preferably pre 74 and as original as possible. Ive got about $5500 burning a hole in my pocket and a Porsche-less garage

Hey David:I think people here understand,but there are some extra tasks and cost with overseas sales.Its just a little more involved,not to mention, there are a lot of scammers out there.Do you know anyone here,that you can trust,that could help you broker the deal??? Maybe go look at the car,check it out,make sure its what you want.Preferably, someone who knows 914s, and there rust problems,and things to look out for.I would not buy a 914,site unseen ever!!!!I do not care, how good it looks in pictures.They need a full rust inspect,rockers covers off.By someone who knows what to look for.There are good cars out there,but its hard to find one really nice, for 5500.But there are some. Good Luck jaymann from PA
