Knowing that back in the 70's when 914's were being sold and driven as daily drivers, I am sure there were those that drove them in the snow and ice during the winter months.
That being said ......is there anyone out there that used/drove the 914 in the Snow and snirt? Curious as to what they handled like and if they were a good winter car. I have owned a few older beetles and Corvairs, these cars were very good in the snow and with a gas heater option you would never have to worry about being cold. Never have had the opportunity to try a 914 in the snow, bur I bet it would be quite a rush.... |

I hated mine in the snow. Yoko A008 tires. Used to slide right off the road into the curb when the road had a crest. Wouldn't make it up my parents driveway because it had a small incline. Terrible. Jeep Cherokee solved all that. Teener sat in the garage for almost 25 years. Scotty B is solving that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
