Porsche Certificate (Zertificate) NLA Options

[JeffBowlsby]

I just learned that Porsche (Germany) has now limited their access for the Certificate (Zertificate) because the 914 is too old – nothing older than a 993 is now possible.

I wonder if this is related to the new system of PPS and CTC for classic Porsche here in the US?

that settles it then for me.
i am going to try VW classic.
gives me all the info on the car including confirmation of original engine number.

its a reasonable cost from VW direct.

i can't see why it won't work.
anywhere else in the world besides USA/Canada the 4 was a VW-Porsche.
i live in aus and the car resides here now.
it was sold at VW dealerships (only) in Germany (at least).
its got a VW model number. 471. ie its a type 4 "ghia". or at least a half of one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

ill be ticking the other country - english language box.

likely porsche north america were using some kind of date base that resided inside VW-Audi or VW of N A records for the 4s, not necessarily a data base held by VW in germany.

the VW certificates are produced from data held in the german operation data base i believe.
where all the old factory records are stored.
karmann was by the time the 914 was being produced owned and operated by VW.
all cars produced for VW used VW protocols and systems for production orders and records. people are able to get classic certificates for beetle cabs built at the same time and in the case of the 914 during late production on the very same production line.
