There's some interesting discussion in the comments here on the Lotus Europa ve. the 914. Oddly enough more than one opinion seems to be the Lotus is more fun but everyone would actually rather have a 914.

I had a rare Lotus Banks Europa before I got my 914-6. Much more light and agile car at only 730kg vs 1050kg for the 914. Had a 180bhp twin cam engine with better independent rear end, but was basically a go kart for the road. No luggage space wind down windows etc but more engaging to drive than the 914. However 914 is more liveable / useable for trips. Clearly I'm getting old!!
