Most of the regular participants of this forum have what I would call "low" miles on thier 914's. Think about it! - if you only put 3,000 miles per year on your 914, the minimum mileage you'd have is 90,000 miles!
Who has the a halfway orignal-in-appearance 914 with monster miles? If you aren't familiar with it, there's a fellow named Mike Robbins (Indiana) who has a Speedster that he's driven virtually every day since new. Last I heard, he had over 400,000 miles on it & that was some time ago. And, it's mostly stock! Who's out there to compete with this? Photos are mandatory! |

Mike was at the 2006 Portland Parade this past week, with 500,000 miles on his "bathtub" Speedster. He had to leave the Parade early, he had to drive back east to attend the 356 registry event.

Takes a lot of time, $ & dedication. I'll be very surprised if we come up with a 914 person with even half the miles. |
