I was reading Road and Track 914 Owner survey from 1972. They surveyed 228 owners (1970-72) and it was interesting to see problem areas that we thought only happen after years of use:

Vapor Lock or fuel pump failure
Speedometer and Fuel Gauge Failure
Glue lost its effectiveness and dash, door panels, and roof headliners peel off.
Clutch cable breaking
Fuel lines breaking
Vague shifting
Starter failure or solenoid would not work while hot
Roof squeaking


Interesting 89% said they would buy another!
