Great British classic car magazine that usually is very detailed and accurate with their write-ups. March issue has a piece where they drive a 1.7 and a 2.0 liter four, and they talk about the six. Since the 914 never was sold in right hand drive, not many made it into Great Britain, so their research and reporting seems a little thin. I'm sure the savvy World crew can find fault with the cars tested and some of the information in the article, but it's still an interesting read. Barnes & Noble carries the magazine, at least the ones in Denver do.

There are various numbers quoted for cars that were converted by Crayfords, the most common number is 11, but as far as I know there are no hard facts to back that up. Some cars went to Hong Kong apparently as it was not, at that time, possible to own a left hand drive car. There is certainly at least one genuine Crayford in the UK.
