914 is it right for me? Dorset
Hi All,
My wife and I would like a 914, but is it right for us. Not many about to try so I wonder if there is anyone in Dorset that would own one, let us have a look around and a ride to see if the reality is as good as the dream?
I have a 993 and will be keeping that. We fancy also have something a little older to play with.
Thanks Andy

Hi Andy,
There used to be a few in Dorset, maybe not any more.
If you can’t find one closer, you are very welcome to come and have a look at ours near Taunton.
Alternatively, our own KS will be competing in his one at Wiscombe Park on Sunday 5th September. I’m sure he wouldn’t take too much persuading to show you around it.
Cheers

Hi Andy
Join the UK914 group on Facebook and ask the same question. I know of one 914 owner in the Southampton area who may be able to help you.

Don't drive the six, you'll just want one and then you will have a whole world of pain trying to find/afford one!914-6 wrote:If you decide to venture towards Hampshire, I have a 914/6 and a RHD 914 in my collection.
