1995 MG RV8 - SOLD

Purchased via Bonham's Bicester Heritage auction in 2020 from a deceased estate, this rare Oxford Blue RV8 has seen little use since purchase due to the owner having a collection of other vehicles that have distracted him.

Reviving and updating the MGB Roadster's design and bolting in a Rover V8 3.9-litre was a considered gamble for MG in the early 1990s but the result was a civilised, refined sports car. On the market between 1992 and 1995, fewer than 2,000 were built, with most going to Japan. Offered here is a late example whose bodywork, blue paint, trim and wheels/tyres are all in excellent condition. The interior, including the cream leather seats, carpet and dashboard are all good, as are the wood door cappings and dashboard. The engine starts easily and the car performs really well with plenty of urge and that evocative soundtrack. There is a thick history file covering maintenance which is complemented by the recent service by ourselves and a fresh MoT.

Available for viewing in our dry, well lit, sales barn by appointment please. 

Appearing factory fresh with virtually unmarked panels and excellent fit.

This is a fast car, driven aggressively it absolutely flies but is equally as happy pottering around the lanes. The controls are well balanced and on the move, it is a really pleasant car to drive with plenty of torque.

Stunning paintwork compliments the lines of the car, the alloy wheels are all in good condition and shod with quality tyres, there are no noticeable blemishes, the hood is good and there are both long and short tonneau covers with the car.

Sumptuous leather seats greet you and combined with the wood trim and deep pile carpet, this feels like a quality car. It is all in good shape and a really comfortable cockpit, great for covering the miles in.

Apart from our accurate and reliable description of this car we believe you will not find a better bunch of chaps to deal with; we know our MGs inside out, we won’t flannel you with sales speak and we aim to provide you with a car that you will be bringing back in a year’s time when the next service and MOT is due, no sooner! However, if you do have a problem we will stand by our car and help you in every way possible. We like to think that 38 years in this business counts for something.

 We are in the quiet Berkshire countryside but close to the M4 and Mortimer Railway Station. Our local pub, the Elm Tree is just a few minutes’ walk away and serves fantastic food and proper beers. Call us to arrange a viewing and a test-drive and come and make a day of it.
