Hello 914World! I am a new member looking for a 914. I owned a 1975 2.0 and a 1970 914-6 back in the day. Prob. Can’t afford a 6, but am feeling the pull to get back into one. Watching sites for a while and am curious what you guys think of this car and dealer.

Looks too good to be true. Nice looking car but lots of little things drag it down. For that $$ I’d like more originality. Aftermarket front valance, aftermarket wheels (most likely - real Fuchs would not have black paint), fuel injection removed, battery hold down wrong. Aggressive use of armorall on the interior always makes me wonder why.
You can find a better car for the money if you’re patient. Put a WTB in the classifieds here and spend some time getting up to speed. Good luck. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) |
