I was wondering how direct I could be in the comments section about it being a load of old bollox!

That story just seems to get worse the more information he posts.

Well done for finally getting the seller to sort out the engine malarkey, Graham
Cheers

I logged in to to ask for a photo of the VIN but it wanted a credit card to comment so I thought sod that. While I was at it I was going to point out it's a 3.2 engine, albeit without the correct fuel filter and electronics on the engine bay.

That exhaust needs more pipes. Another two would make one per cylinder.

Get in quick before a dealer doubles the price because I doubt they'll be around for long at those prices:

£9,500 914.

<Deleted at request of vendor>

£35k 912

Just to follow up with an explanation on the 914 for sale - I messaged the vendor through Facebook suggesting he advertise it here and he said he'd rather not. I volunteered that I'd already linked his ad and would he like me to remove that too and he said yes, so I did.

tbh I think it was just internet paranoia. Looked like a good, honest car.

Didn't reach reserve and got bid to about £62k, missed the final, final figure. All those people who were bidding should thank their lucky stars they didn't get it!

Nice looking T (US T/E being on MFI)? on ebay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from ... 1&_sacat=0

Doesn't seem a bad price if it's a proper car.

Always makes me cringe when a seller uses terms like 'she' & 'her' when referring to a car.

Horrible replica Fuchs ...
