HI Guys.
Many thanks for adding me to your forum.I cant see any other place to introduce myself so here goes! My name is Adrian and I live in the UK..I own and have owned Porsche for the last 24 years and I have admired the 914 for soo long! The 914 is a very rare sight on UK roads and the time has now come that I need to scratch my itch for a 914.. So I am looking for a super nice, standard 914 of any year to buy that is located in the UK... If you are thinking of selling or know of a car that may be available please send me a message. Regards Adrian (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Hello ,
I own a 914, well its just been imported from California, the shipping will cost you 3000 pounds including uk homogulation tax registering MOT etc.. you will pay approx 1500 for shipping the rest will be the above .You cannot really save much unless you pick up the car yourself in the uk and do the work yourself , I calculate that 1000 pounds has to be paid to DVLC for road tax , mot registering etc. so you need to look at approx 30000 for all shipping and costs in uk and Customs and excise will cost you approx 4 to 6 hundred pounds as long as your shipper states that the car will be a classical work of art , great loophole! you should spend nothing under 9 to 12 thousand pounds to get a daily driver in very good condition , you want an original unmolested example from years 73 to 74 and with a 2 litre engine, idealy you should get an original matching engine car, the price of a good one has been steadily increasing over the last 2 to 3 years , people in the know are getting the good ones now as they beleive its going to be a real sleeper classic, I live in Surrey, if you need any help , email me on alphonsolowing@hotmail.com. by the way get the original fuel injection , worth more and dont touch conversions from fuel injection to carbs The 914 gang are the best that I have met , their knowlege beats the hell of any other site , and that includes Porsche Uk , take a bow 914 world !
