Early last year I received an email requesting ownership and race history on a 914/6. After some back and forth I discover that the man I was corresponding with was the bass player for Coldplay (Guy Berryman).
I researched the car and found enough information to do an article (coming soon). Guy was so enamored with the 914/6 that he ended up with three. As you might expect he wanted a GT to go racing with. It took a month but we were able to assemble all the necessary parts for the conversion. Working under a tight deadline Guy and his team finished the GT before the April running of the Tour Auto Optic 2000. I received an email from Guy this morning with a link to some pictures. |

Other musicians that own GTs include, Brian Johnson, (AC/DC singer) and Jay Kay ( Jamiraquoi singer). They have both owned them for years. Have seen YouTube vids of them driving. Jay Kay drives the snot out of his.
