It is indeed! Well spotted.
I think I sold it for £3500, it had a very good engine when I sold it, in fact mechanically it was very sound.
I fitted the cookie cutters & 944 steering wheel.

And I like them

:lol: I was wondering whether it was one of 'our' cars. Be interesting to see how it does.

Hello,

I'll let you know how I get on.

Ok picked the 914 up today, I put a new battary on it and she fired up straight away, the brakes are abit crap but I drove 28 miles back home no worries :) .
I need a few bit an exhaust and possibly a left hand door its a bit rotten.
Sorry for the spelling :)
