This Porsche 914 Targa offered today was imported into the UK
some years ago from California. In more recent times it was owned
and looked after by the well respected Porsche
specialist. Dave Dennett. proprietor of DSD Motorwerks. br/>Billericay. Essex and purchased from him by the current owner. The
914 is presented with fully colour coded black (factory L401)
coachwork that. although displaying some small blemishes. looks
attractive and is especially complimented by a set of genuine Fuch
wheels; it is worth noting that to fit these wheels. a Porsche
911 five stud hub conversion is required and has been carried out
to good effect on this car. The chassis number prefix of 475
denotes that this is a flat four 914 manufactured in 1975 and the
engine. of 1700cc capacity. is mated to the
dog-leg. five-speed gearbox; these 914 gearboxes are
reminiscent of the early Porsche 911s. On the inside. the
blue/black interior looks very smart with excellent seats still in
their original covers. however. the dash top is cracked but this
common problem has been smartly resolved by the fitting of a
Californian dashboard cover. A non-standard sports steering wheel
is fitted. nicely finishing off the interior. The Targa top is
easily removed for those sunny days and is easily stowed above
luggage in the rear boot compartment. On the road this 914 drives
and handles very well and happily sits at 70mph on the
motorway.

The 914. so long overlooked. is now being appreciated for its
compact mid engine design and capability especially considering
that the performance may be taken to a higher level of tune quite
easily. With 911 prices disappearing out of sight for many. these
little Porsches are now attracting the interest they deserve. This
914 will arrive with a fresh MoT test certificate and although not
a concourse contender. it is very solid and still looks smart
enabling a new owner to enjoy Porsche ownership with pride.
