Saw this evil 914/6 in Ironbridge today

The best bit for me was the engine

Didn't manage to talk to the owner

Sorry about the camera phone pictures.

Cool pics.

Do you have any of your 914?

I think it's the same one as was at Silverstone last weekend - when the couple who are in it showed up, I got a small surprise - they clearly have been Porsche fans for many many years

yep, it was at Silverstone:

I think it was only there on the Saturday? I didn't see it. Who owns it? Did they travel from Deutschland, or is it an import?

Hey Derek, just thought it was probably you I saw in your white 914 just outside Nantwich Thursday morning (think it was Thursday!) last week about 7:15am?

Looking good!

If it wasn't you then your car has a double

I was in the stealth Passat so you wouldn't have noticed me

powered by a 3.2 Carrera motor - looked a pretty nice car when I had a look at it at S'stone

Hi Derek,

That green car looks awesome. (great quality photos for a camera phone)

Why don't you ditch the 911, and stick the 993 engine in your 914!

just a thought.....

kind regards
Robster

I've spent the weekend thinking just that

What to do for a gearbox just keeps me up all night

oh yes - that is sweeeeeeet - like what they did with the engine cover - split down the middle with mesh across the whole lid rather than just the back section - a must for extra heat release i guess

Ian Gunney · Post by **Ian Gunney** » Wed Aug 09, 2006 7:00 pm

full mesh grille a la 914-6GT / 916

not a difficult job - can't be as I did mine!

Ian, have you got any pictures of yours?
