sale - reimported RV8 in Woodcote Green - N676 HVX 1995 build reimported to UK in 2000 via New Zealand in very good condition. Taxed and on the road ever since I purchased it, but never in wet or salty conditions, hence 58,700 miles (plus 14,000 km on reimport). It comes with full-service history during my ownership, with some from beforehand. During my ownership the windscreen surround has been replaced, all veneers redone, aircon removed, new bump stops and adjustable Spax shock absorbers, and a complete Wax-Oil, mostly by Clive Wheatley. Many other improvements - high torque starter & catalytic converters and new hood fitted since last used. Serviced & checked plus an oil change at every MOT. Has been a very reliable car always started and driven like it should, with many enjoyable miles covered but sadly now age dictates a more sedate mode of transport. The car comes with a luggage rack, full tonneau and wind stop, many documents and a workshop manual, plus new spare wheel and a full tool kit. MOT from January 2023. £20,500. 221222 Photos Contact: Charles Peers 07836 273541. Location: near Oxford. |

sale - MG RV8 P494 WMJ - SOLD Woodcote Green 2150, full service history covering the last 20 years. Bought last year from top MG specialist Brown and Gammons, which serviced the car for many years but space (and funds) now needed to restore a J-type MG. It has been scrupulously cared for and updated, and has a top-class paint job and much of the trim has been renewed as has the hood. Being Japanese spec, it also has fully working air conditioning (essential at the moment). Total mileage according to Brown and Gammons is 71,000 miles but it’s looks almost like new under the bonnet. The MGCC history folder has MOT certificates from 2002 plus receipts for power-steering, Spax shockers, catalytic converters, stainless steel exhaust, ECU chip, spot lights, Sony radio, immobiliser, wind deflector and much more. I am in the process of acquiring a ‘basket case’ 1932 MG J-type which will require all my time, funds and workshop space – hence the sale. £19,750. 220807 Location Silverstone |

The three "Ws" are excellent: wood (recently professionally refurbished), wheels (recently refurbished and sold with car but not currently on the car) and windscreen frame. The car benefits from Hoyle independent fully adjustable rear suspension (with disc brakes) and Hoyle front suspension.

sale - low mileage reimported RV8 in Oxford Blue
SOLD MG RV8 VIN No 1960 (96 P) is a very reluctant sale due to mobility problems and subsequent limited use of my reimported Japan spec example in Oxford Blue, with only 26,316 miles on the replaced mph speedometer. Very low mileage in the UK since reimport in 2009 (approx.6,000 miles) with one owner in Japan and one owner in the UK. This car has been completely reliable in my possession and is in good condition with only a couple of very minor body marks. The elm burr dashboard and door cappings and full leather trim are in good condition for their age. The alloy wheels are good with no rim damage and only minor corrosion around a couple of the dummy rivets. The spare is original and unused. It has a very good hood and an excellent hood tonneau cover. The aircon is working perfectly and a new FM Clarion radio is fitted (the factory fitted CD player is included). Extras include a Clive Wheatley Perspex windstop, new logo floor mats together with the Clive Wheatley upgraded Spax gas shock absorbers all round. Fitted Toyo Proxes tyres give a much softer ride and are in excellent condition all round. Car has been serviced and maintained by Beech Hill with a service history. MOT until April 2020. A box of various spare parts is included and a very comprehensive document file. Price: £18,500. 190504 & 190615 Location: Berkshire. |

RV8
in Nightfire Red or Oxford Blue is sought by a keen buyer! Preferably a UK spec RV8 but a reimport would be considered. Mileage is not too much of an issue but condition and service history certainly is. The right car for me is the one which has been meticulously looked after and may be, just "stands out from the crowd" more than others! So, if you have such a lovely example that needs and will have a good new home then email or phone me. 131027 Vehicle now found and acquired by a new smiling RV8 owner |

sale - UK spec RV8 on Old English White - SOLD
Sep 2013 Old English White (93L) is a UK specification model with c 25,500 recorded miles substantiated by service receipts and MOT certificates. It has had one previous owner. MG's published production records show that only 5 cars were built in this colour with only 3 being manufactured to UK specification and remaining in the country. The vehicle is therefore extremely rare. It is in very good overall condition and apart from a replacement windscreen surround, which was commissioned by the previous owner, and is virtually original. It has been garaged and has completed very few miles since it was last sold. This reflects the lack of time able to be devoted to using the car and therefore the reason for the sale. The vehicle also has a black Krafthaus hardtop. Taxed until 30th September 2013 and an MOT until late October 2013. Price £15,850. 130709 Location: East Sussex. |

Beware
of scam from an overseas V8 buyer!
Rick Morton (Woodcote Green 1300) 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." How does the scam work? "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 advertising here need to be alert to this scam and any approach from the scam merchant!
