Hello all, I'm brand new to the magical world of the 914. I've always been a fan of them, and it APPEARS my dream is about to come true. I've found one locally, and am going to look at it in a few days. Its a 1975 1.8. I'm not a motor head, and was hoping to get some advice on what to look out for, or for signs of danger...
I look forward to getting to know people... Thanks, Kyle[i] |

38 year old cars are great second cars, not great Daily drivers.
They break down...everything will break. If you spend a year driving it and fixing it, finally getting to touch every sub system and every wire...then it becomes dependable...until something else breaks. Rich |
