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

the 1990s.
