Poor man’s Porsche 914? Money pit? Project car from hell?

It’s a Ford taunus V4, actually.

I mean, a front-engine FWD V4 is kinda like a mid-engine RWD F4 when you think about it. That said, these were on my shortlist back when I was in the market.

Looks solid. That’s not a bad deal. You hardly ever see them in blue. Fun project/future C&C weekend car.

I’d imagine cost of ownership might actually be higher than the Porsche because these things are so uncommon in the states.

I assume it is a V4. If it is, it’s a pretty simple car that anybody with a toolbox should be able to do most repairs on. As mentioned its a ford German engine.

My opinion is it is the equivalent of a Porsche 914 to own, and better than a 924. If it drives well, and if it doesn’t have a million miles, why not.

Oh by the way, don’t get hit by a suburban, or its a closed casket funeral.....

So why is it only a third of the actual value? My first thought is that it must not have a title/be eligible for driving on the road.
