sale - Factory MGBGTV8 in Citron registered 1st Aug 1974 - SOLD
in only 4 days
Citron 1638 with 95,291 miles. I bought the car in
April 2005 and have dry stored it since. The car had been off the road for ten
years before that. Some work had been done towards returning it to the road when
I bought it. Over the past 8 years I have replaced many items to get the car back
on the road but time is not something I have been able to spend on it. Parts include
exhaust, starter motor, fuel pump, radiator, and refurbished front callipers and
hoses. The car runs but needs work to get it back on the road. Price £2,500

sale - DEV 2, the second Project Adder development car
It was built in
1990 by Mark Gamble at BMH using a new Heritage MGB shell and fitted with a 3.9
injection engine supplied by Land Rover Engineering. The car has covered just
over 26,000 miles and is in very good condition. It has a 3.9i V8 with 5 speed
box with uprated suspension and brakes. Apart from its obvious historic importance,
it is a very fast usable car. It may look like an ordinary MGB, apart from its
RV8 bonnet and prototype styled front end, but its performance is far from ordinary.
It comes with a comprehensive history file and documents relating to its ownership
with BMH and Rover Group. I am only selling this car as I need the room. The last
time I used it was in 2010 and it is now on SORN. It will be given a new 12 months
MOT for the new owner. This is a genuine works development car with documented
history. I am open to sensible offers around £14,000. 080912

Beware
of scam from an overseas V8 buyer!
Rick
Morton has reported a scam which members who are selling a V8 need to note. Rick
says "I just thought I would update you on my experience with trying
to sell my RV8 recently before I withdrew it from sale. Both Jerry Winfield (Woodcote
Green 1684) and I heard from the same person but I also had several other emails
with roughly the same approach. Basically this person who is overseas agrees to
buy your car, and will send you a cheque for more than the asking price to cover
shipping costs etc. He then asks if you could bank the cheque and send the balance
to his shipping agent via a money transfer. The cheque bounces but only after
you have sent the cash to the shipping agent. This scam relies on your ignorance
of how the cheque clearing system works. Problems arise because banks update their
computers on day three of the clearing cycle. So if you check with them at that
time, you may very well be told that the funds are available. It will only be
on day four that the bank realises that there is a problem, and on day five that
they tell you. Weekends and Bank Holidays all add to the delay. In my case the
scam merchant was going to send me a cheque for £3,400 more than I was asking
for the car. I was to subtract the cost of the car and send the remainder to his
"shipping agent"." So members need to be alert to this scam and
any approach from the scam merchant!
