DESCRIPTION
By the late sixties, both Volkswagen and Porsche were in need of new models; Porsche was looking for a replacement for their entry level 912, and Volkswagen wanted a new range-topping coupé to replace the ageing Karmann Ghia. The Porsche 914 or VW-Porsche 914 was the result of this joint venture and was a mid-engined, Targa-topped, rear wheel drive, two seat roadster designed, manufactured and marketed by both companies from 1969 to 1976. Over the years, engine configurations and sizes varied, but in later years the car was powered by a 1971cc fuel-injected, flat-four producing around 100bhp.
The vendor believes that this may be the oldest Porsche 914 in Denmark, and whether that is the case or not, it certainly looks very smart in red with chrome end panels, an unmarked Black Targa roof, and a very tidy black interior. It's a 5-speed model with the small centre seat and retains its original alloy wheels.
These little cars, particularly in this condition, are becoming sought after all over Europe. The car is Danish registered and ready to drive away.
