1979 Porsche 924 2.0L Petrol · ACU 769V

The 1979 Porsche 924 presents a currently roadworthy status following its most recent MOT pass on 16 August 2023 at 15,906 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, though the history is sparse and offers limited insight into long-term care. A previous failure on 24 July 2023 at 15,898 miles is notable, yet the tester logged no defects, suggesting an administrative or unrecorded issue rather than a mechanical fault. The recorded mileage of 15,906 at the August 2023 test equates to roughly 338 miles per year across the car's 47-year life, confirming exceptionally light use. The gap between the July and August 2023 tests shows only eight miles covered, and no earlier MOT entries exist in the supplied record. Such low annual accumulation implies prolonged standing periods, which commonly degrade rubber suspension bushes, brake caliper seals, and tyre sidewalls more than high-mileage wear would. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension for perished bushes and check the brake system for binding calipers or seized handbrake mechanisms caused by inactivity. The absence of corrosion or structural advisories in the record is encouraging, but standing moisture exposure may still have affected floor pans and sills unseen by the tester. Given the clean final pass and minimal mileage, the vehicle likely received careful storage rather than frequent use. Prospective owners must verify fluid condition, brake disc pitting, and tyre age before relying on the car for road use.
