porsche 914 Gulf Racing colours (SOLD)

Unfortunately we have to sell our well loved 914 due to being made redundant so a more practical car is needed (might possibly px for small van or car :(

It's a 1972 with a 2.0 engine, Fuchs wheels with nearly new Toyo tyres on.
I've just had it mot'd so it's got 12 months on it. 75,000 miles on it
I've only had it a few months but it's awesome to drive!

The colours look great when polished up, obviously it's not perfect, battery tray needs doing and the bit below the windscreen needs doing also.

I got it valued for my insurers and it got a £4000 valuation (guy that did it has had a couple of 914's)

I'm selling it for £3000

Any questions feel free to pm me, and if anyone wants more pictures then i'm happy to take some more.

Thanks for the offer, i need something that wont draw as much atention as were we have moved its parked to near the road and some plonker has desided to rip the car cover . The good thing is were ever you go people will stop and look and ask about the car so not for the shy...

Cheers

Has the battery acid eaten a hole in the main chassis?

It may have an MOT now but if the chassis is holed then it IS an MOT failure as its well within 12" of a chassis point. (Sorry to say).

Having repaired 2 hell holes now myself I know how expensive a repair this can be.
