1997 KVA GT40 6.7L Petrol · Q714 YUJ

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness status based on the most recent MOT result. On 13 May 2025, the car passed the inspection with no defects or advisories recorded, indicating a stable mechanical condition at that point in time. The absence of any reported faults suggests no history of significant mechanical failure or structural degradation requiring immediate attention. The mileage data is exceptionally low for a vehicle of 29 years' age, showing only 4 miles recorded as of the latest test. This indicates the car has been kept in long-term storage or used strictly for show purposes rather than regular road use. While low mileage implies minimal wear on drivetrain components, brake pads, and engine internals, it introduces specific risks related to age and fluid degradation that a standard MOT test cannot detect. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection focusing on components that suffer from sitting stationary. Priority should be given to checking perished rubber elements, such as tyres, suspension bushes, and brake hoses, which dry and crack regardless of mileage. The structural integrity of the chassis needs be examined for hidden corrosion, as long-term storage can sometimes lead to moisture trap in areas. All vital fluids, including brake fluid and coolant, should be inspected for contamination or breakdown to ensure they have not degraded over the long periods of inactivity.
