1998 MG RV8 Roadster. Woodcote Green with barley leather upholstery and a black mohair hood. You may be wondering why the car wasn’t registered until 1998. It is believed that this is one of two cars that Rover kept back after production ceased in case a problem arose with a car exported to Japan that had a major warranty claim and would be easiest solved by sending a replacement car. The cars were kept on Cyprus and then returned to Cowley where they were registered as new U.K vehicles and reportedly sold to Rover employees. This MG has been with its last keeper since 2004 when he purchased it with just 21,000 miles. During his 17 year ownership the car has been very well cared for and comes complete with a huge history file containing bills, invoices and old mot certificates confirming the current low mileage of 82,000 as correct. After reading through the file we noted that 2018 electric power steering was fitted with an invoice for £1700 for the kit alone, this makes the driving experience even more pleasurable than it already was. Also with the car are half and full tonneau covers which complete the look totally original of this sports roadster. Presenting very well inside and out this rare MG is ready to enjoy in new hands, with an mot until August 2022 with no advisories and driving just as you would expect with a wonderful V8 acoustic you can enjoy retro looks with modern technology.
