1994 MG R V8, Oxford Blue For Sale

This superbly presented Oxford Blue MG RV8 has been with its last owner for nine years and in this time has covered 13, 000 miles. The RV8 records a mileage of 32500, believed genuine and since its arrival in the UK when eight years old, we can verify the MG has totalled around 28000. The MG was built on the 11th July 1994 and in December 1994 was registered in Japan. The RV8 spent its early years in Kyoto City and in 2002 the car returned to the UK and an MG Rover Group certificate confirms conformity and re-registration details.
From 2003 the MG was owned by a Dorset based Doctor before making its way up to the North of England and a superb file of paperwork accompanies the car detailing all of its maintenance. In 2004 Bristol Street Motors main dealership in Poole MOT tested the car and serviced it at 7990 miles and later in 2004 the MG was treated to another service and work to the exhaust manifolds, new catalytic converter, new front suspension springs and anti-roll bar bushes. Cosmetic work in 2004 included a new hood assembly. In 2005 at eleven years old the MG RV8 was treated to a new clutch, new handbrake cables and rear brake shoes.

From 2003 to 2010 the MG covered around 12000 miles so by 2010 the RV8 had covered 19486 recorded miles and headed to the North of England. In September 2010 Gilbert Lawton replaced the brake shoes and MOT tested the car and in 2011 the car was treated to a full rebuild of the differential and rear axle. Cosmetic work included new exterior door handles and general maintenance from 2011 to 2020 includes a new clutch slave cylinder and master cylinder, a new rocker cover gasket, sump gasket and manifold gaskets, rear wheel cylinders, track rod ends, new coil, fuel pump, steering rack gaiters, silicone coolant hoses and new heater control light box transfer kit.

Having been maintained with no expense spared this MG RV8 is exceptional to drive. It has impressive power, performance, handling, and braking, and is serious fun and absolutely first class on the road. Regular servicing has kept this MG in great condition and its cosmetic condition matches its driving capabilities and performance. The Oxford Blue paintwork is superbly presented, correct original alloys are in smart condition, the hood is excellent, and the leather upholstery is beautiful and in keeping with its recorded low mileage. This is a fantastic car and in one of the best RV8 colours.
