Dacia Supports Adventurer Akke Rahman on Quest to Conquer K2

Dacia, the car brand with a spirit for adventure, is proud to support record-breaking UK mountaineer Akke Rahman as he sets off to climb K2, one of the most challenging mountains in the world.

Known as “The Savage Mountain,” K2 (8,611m) is considered even tougher than Everest due to its steep slopes, technical climbing, and unpredictable weather. Akke, who became the first British Muslim to summit Everest in 2022, will face a demanding ascent, navigating rock, ice, and extreme altitudes, while testing both his physical and mental endurance.

Akke’s journey in mountaineering began just six years ago with Mount Snowdon (1,085m). Since then, he has climbed Mont Blanc, Kilimanjaro, Mount Elbrus, and Everest – raising over £1 million for charity along the way. His determination and achievements have inspired countless people to embrace the outdoors, no matter their background or experience.

A proud member of the Dacia Adventure Community, Akke joins a group of like-minded adventurers, from weekend hikers to marine biologists and car campers, all embracing the outdoors and taking on real challenges that reflect Dacia’s love for exploration and adventure.

Akke Rahman said:
"When I discovered climbing, I knew I wanted to keep challenging myself by summiting more and more mountains. I am very grateful to Dacia for helping me achieve my next dream of conquering one of the world’s toughest, K2. Being part of the Dacia Adventure Community makes this journey even more special."

Luke Broad, Dacia Brand Director UK, added:
"Dacia is a brand with outdoor spirit, and supporting Akke perfectly aligns with our love of adventure. His drive and determination are inspiring, and we are proud to support him on this incredible challenge. We wish him the very best of luck in his attempt to summit K2."

Akke is currently acclimatising in the region and aims to reach the summit before the end of the month. His climb showcases not only personal courage and determination but also the adventurous spirit that Dacia encourages in everyone who loves the outdoors.

Letchworth Autoway Centre Limited is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Letchworth Autoway Centre Limited to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a lender on our panel, which includes lenders of vehicle manufacturers. We have commercial arrangements with lenders and credit brokers which are likely to influence who we introduce you to. We are not an independent financial adviser and don’t give you any advice or recommendations. It is your choice whether you enter into any finance agreement.

Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked to the franchise offering you the vehicle. They will usually offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions (but we do not guarantee they do). If they are unable to offer finance, we then seek to introduce you to someone else on our panel. We will usually receive a commission for your introduction. This will be either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you choose.

Lenders of vehicle manufacturers may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will tell you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receiving this commission. The exact amount of commission will be confirmed before you sign your finance agreement.

All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required.
