How come your selling it already .

need to raise some money to finish off my 356 and Larry wouldn't let me sell the sporto.

so something has to go.

i'm not overly happy about selling it as its now one very sorted 914...awesome.
took me narly 2 years to find such a goodun

So the Sporto is no longer for sale - are we sure on this? If so I would ammend the For Sale advert for it.

with me never say never i'm a women i'm never sure about anything

i'm always open to offers on any of my cars. I am afraid i just don't get emosionally attached to cars or anything else for that matter(ask my family ) but, for the time being, thanks to Larry sulking, its (i guess) officialy off the market.

First dibs! Let me know when you change your mind!

my friend keeps playing with the idea of a nice 914 and i'm sure yours is amazing helen - i'll forward this link.

ps: you the sporto and the 914 are mentioned in C&SC page 214
i'm on page 13 as a proud owner of a new austin healey sprite can you find me? yippee!!

oooh exciting i'll hve to go and take a look in w h smiths

Superb car (especially with the minilites), wish I had the dollars to buy it and ship it up here. Hopefully it will go to another DDKer.

as requested sme pictures of the

underside of the car

and Engine Bay:

well i have had quite a bit of interest, a couple of silly offers and someone who i didn't think would look after it how it deserves to be looked after

So at the moment i still have it, its going off to have the new clutch cable adjusted as its stretched a tad over the miles i did last week-end visiting the fairmile.

next week-end i am planning to take it down to yeovil for a 914 drive and visit to the Haynes museum.
then the 9th sept i shall be taking it to Ragley Hall PCGB event.


after that if its still not sold i have arranged for it to go to a dealer who i suspect will be asking several more ££ for it.



so if your thinking of buying this really really good 914 and you don't want me to put the extra miles on it please let me know NOW.

Helen,

What about putting it in the auction at Ragley Hall ?

Would snap your hand off for it if I had the money.

Ian

yes i thought about that but, don't really understand how auctions work for the seller.

i don't want them to sell it for peanuts and me end up owing them £1K's commisiion charges.

Fancy a 944 S2 in part ex?
