Ok I'm doing an album on my 1972 project, a before during and after. I'm working on getting a reproduction window sticker, have scores of pictures and would like to add some history. I have numbers of 914 produced by years and was wondering if anyone had any idea on how many are still on the road? No right or wrong answer here, I did find a thread from 2008 and the range was from 2400-12,000.. I think this would be interesting reading at local car shows and the like. THANKS and enjoy!

Just looked at the howmanyleft.co.uk website to check out if 914 data is there or not, looks like not, but maybe buried deep in the original data set but not via the website

I suspect that the 914's are hidden in the 'missing' model info for the Porsche and / or VW data sets i.e. model has not been tagged properly so could include all kinds of models Porsche data set clear must include 356's because if you search for those, again none would appear to exist / lumped into the missing bucket

This is publicly available data from the government vehicle licensing database (central unlike the US). In the UK your car has to be either road taxed or SORN status which is basically a statement that your car is off the road and not being used. Both are renewed every year at a maximum / status could obviously switch mid year

New SORN system came in probably 10 years ago so over time more and more cars have been caught in the system / data has become more accurate over time
