I have a 1975 914 1.8l - I've driven it to/from work and it is a chore. No power anything, so it is a workout for your arms and legs. Not having power steering and power brakes/ABS can be a dangerous situation in heavy stop-n-go traffic. And, finally, living in Houston area, not having A/C means the car is not a DD during most of the year (LOW temp of 75+ in the morning, highs into the mid- to upper-90's).

Would not recommend a 914 for a DD. But fun out on the road on cool weekend mornings!
