1982 AK Sportscar Petrol · EOL 679C

The vehicle maintains a clean MOT status, with the most recent test on 2 September 2025 resulting in a pass with no recorded defects. This indicates a stable maintenance trend, particularly following the failed attempt on 27 August 2025. While the failure record lacks specific defect details, the immediate rectification and subsequent pass within six days suggest that any issues were either administrative or minor enough to be resolved promptly by the owner. The recorded mileage of 15,041 miles over a 44-year lifespan confirms extremely light usage, averaging approximately 342 miles annually. The MOT history remains remarkably consistent, showing annual testing from May 2022 through September 2025 without any recurring mechanical advisories. This lack of recorded defects suggests the vehicle has been kept in a climate-controlled environment or has seen very limited road exposure, which helps mitigate the typical degradation associated with long-term storage. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the effects of long-term inactivity rather than high-mileage wear. Given the age and low usage, examine all rubber components, including suspension bushes, coolant hoses, and fuel lines, as these materials perish over time regardless of mileage. Inspect the chassis and floor pans for signs of structural corrosion, as vehicles that sit for extended periods are prone to moisture-related oxidation. Verify the condition of the brake system, specifically checking for seized calipers or perished seals that often occur when hydraulic systems remain stagnant.
