  We prove the existence of the old and metal-rich moving group HR1614. This is
done using the new Hipparcos parallaxes in combination with metallicities
derived from Stromgren photometry, supported by dynamical simulations of the
evolution of old moving groups in the galactic potential. A new selection
criterion for this moving group is presented as well as a new, extended sample
of probable member stars. In particular we find that the HR 1614 moving group
has an age of about 2 Gyr (using Bertelli et al. 1994 isochrones) and a [Fe/H]
= 0.19 +/- 0.06 dex. We also revisit and apply our new selection criterion to
the samples in Eggen (1992) and Eggen (1998). It is found that, when binaries
and stars with too low metallicity have been removed, 15 of his stars fulfill
our criteria.
