RV8 - concept, development and production talk in 2003
What inspired the RV8 development team to create a modern classic sportscar to keep MG alive as a modern brand in the 1990s? It was fascinating tale from two enthusiasts very closely involved in the project.

In 2003 a group of V8 enthusiasts listened to a fascinating story from John Yea and David Bishop of what had inspired the RV8 development team to undertake an extraordinary low budget project - creating a modern classic sportscar to keep the name of MG alive in the 1990s as a modern brand. It was an extraordinary tale from two enthusiasts who had been so closely involved and had a pivotal role in the project - they commented "projects like that just don't happen like that anymore". The talk is available as a video recording.

Video recording of a talk by John Yea and David Bishop in 2003 available on a USB memory stick so you can see and hear a first hand account of what really happened as the RV8 project progressed through the concept, development and production creating a modern classic sportscar to keep the name of MG alive as a modern brand in the 1990s.
