Default Most miles?

Hey guys,
Just a quick question for everybody. How many miles do you all have on your 914? Who has the most and who has the least? Check back on this topic and lets see who wins! I have 120K on mine and I am sure that is about average! Best wishes - Jay Gratton

I have about 54,000 on my '73. Owned it for about 20 years and put only 5,000 on in that time.

Have 115,000 on my 914 which I've owned since new in Dec 1970. Have 72000 on a 2.0 '73 I received from a friend's widow a couple years ago having known the car and autocrossed against it since '74! My kids will keep my car in the family when my Porsche days are over so who knows...but we're lucky to put 1000-1500 miles a year on it now.

Pete,
Is this Tremper? Because if it is I would believe it when you say you have over a 100K of track miles. Hope to see you at the Glen this summer. Best wishes - Jay Gratton

Great track Pete! I really enjoyed it at the Parade last year, as I am sure you did. Matt and I are trying to figure out a way to make the southern tracks this spring/summer as well. Have fun! - Jay Gratton
