Sepia Brown is a rare colour for a 914 as it wasn't a standard colour. It would have been a special order colour with a colour code of L98.

Just noticed you're from the UK. Have you found a Sepia car in the UK?

I know of six Sepia 914's. I would love to get the VIN of another car.

really looking for a ivory white one like yours defianty Thanks, although there's not a lot of paint left on it right now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) If you really have your heart set on a particular colour then hold out. I was hours away from buying an Olympic Blue car before I got mine but had to pull out at the eleventh hour because I wanted a Light Ivory car so much. Pardon the pun but Sepia is a marmite colour, some love it others hate it. I have a close friend who has a Sepia 911, I personally think it's a great colour but there's a lot of haters out there. 914's have never been popular in the UK but we all know that is starting to change, although I hate to admit it a Sepia 914 may be a little tougher to sell in the UK. |

ivory seems to be more available in a 914/6 and 914 with a 1700cc engine not easy to find a good 73/74 car in whitre with a 2.0
