The Definitive History of the Road & Competition Cars

Beschreibung

Back in print! The Porsche 914's early history was blighted by political problems with VWâ s new management. However, by the end of production, almost 119,000 examples had been sold. This book records the full international story of the mid-engined 914, from concept through to the final production car.
