ahh yes I remember that v8 914 - they never really got on top of it.... the 6 cylinder engined cars always seemed better resolved, more reliable and of course faster.

 

Met a fellow at Porsche Sportscar day at Porsche Centre Willoughby a few weeks ago who owned the shell for a time back in the early 2000's I think.

Cool car,   one of only 23 m471spec factory cars

interesting.

I understand they also sold M471 kits back in the day and owners could do their own conversions. I read that they made 400 lots for homologation but many of them sat with dealers unsold 🤷‍♂️

and like a lot of things that were hard to sell back in the day - they are now very desirable and quite valuable!
