Factory options; Pearlescent paint. Accessories; Elm Burr veneer and polished steel Moto-Lita steering wheel, Elm Burr veneer gear knob, bespoke leather rimmed wind deflector, tailored soft car cover.

EXTERIOR
An appealing, curvaceous, wasp-waisted style immediately recognisable to MG aficionados is finished in optional pearlescent Woodcote Green, (Code HPE) at a cost of £750 when new. A stunning deep gloss finish has been preserved by the two fastidious UK owners since the car arrived from Japan in 1998. The correct panels produced by Abbey Panels are virtually unmarked other than a tiny scratch to the nearside front wing. The original factory fitted soft top made by Tickford is pristine and the rear screen perfectly clear. The rear tonneau is present and a very well-designed bespoke wind deflector is neatly fitted and framed in matching beige leather. The famous octagonal MG badging is bright and unmarked and all chrome brightwork has a mirror finish. An enduring British motoring classic with this example being difficult to fault.

INTERIOR
Lavishly trimmed in fine Connolly Stone Beige leather, (Code SMJ), with a ruched pattern and rich in Elm Burr veneer adorning the facia panel, centre console and door cappings the interior is pure luxury. The optional and expensive Elm Burr Moto-Lita steering wheel and gear knob are fine additions to this regal interior. MG traditional sporting appeal can be seen with a full set of VDO black-on-white working instruments and chrome interior door handles, roll top lid ashtray and handbrake release button. The original MG velour mats have protected the dark Stone Beige cut pile carpets. The correct Panasonic radio cassette player with the MG logo remains fitted. A beautifully traditional interior in outstanding preserved condition.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The 3.9 litre V8 is extremely flexible with large reserves of torque and 190bhp giving effortless midrange overtaking. 0-60mph is despatched in 5.9 seconds and a top speed of 135mph is quoted. The engine bay is spotlessly clean and factory original with all markings, plates and stickers present. The V8 burble through the twin exhaust pipe is intoxicating. The robust Land Rover built 77mm 5-speed gearbox changes with reassuring precision and a progressive light clutch action.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Distinctive cast alloy 15x6J road wheels with mid grey cross spoke sections are unmarked and still retain the MG centre security caps. The Zender split rim bolts have no corrosion and matching Falken 205/65 R15 tyres have ample tread. Servo assisted ventilated front disc brakes with 4-piston callipers and rear drums do an impressive job of bringing the vehicle to a safe halt.

HISTORY FILE
The MG RV8 was always destined to become a classic with just 1,983 units made reviving a golden history and celebrating thirty years after the birth of the legendary MGB. This pampered low mileage example spent four years with its Japanese owner who purchased the car new in 1994. A Rover Group British National Type Approval Certificate of Conformity confirms the date of manufacture the 18th October 1994 and in 1998 the vehicle was repatriated with all importation documents and UK registration completed. The history file is superb with the two UK owners keeping every single MOT certificate from the very first in 1998 along with a large file of specialist invoices and receipts for servicing and maintenance work. A diary of maintenance has been kept and in 2009 there was a documented and photographed speedometer change carried out at 11,978 miles, the odometer now reading 5,109 miles. The second of the UK owners purchased the car in 2017 where is sat alongside his fully restored MGB GT LE. Both sets of keys and code tags are present along with two MG RV8 The Marque has returned' sales brochure as well as a price list and an official MG 1930-1992 history of the Marque released when the RV8 was launched.

About usKGF Classic Cars was formed by the owner's desire to pass on the enjoyment of amazingly original, modern classic cars and the pleasure these vehicles offer to their appreciative owners.

The eldest son of Italian-born parents – whose families came to the Cambridgeshire Fens after WWII to make bricks for new housing – Karl Fasulo grew up in the 70s and 80s when there were fewer cars on the roads.

His appreciation of beautiful motors began when his engineer father, Sav, purchased a red 1983 Mercedes 280SL as a weekend car back in 1985. That same Mercedes is still well-loved and driven regularly by Karl and is now in the showroom for all to see!

After a successful career spanning two decades selling and managing premium vehicles for dealerships in London and Cambridgeshire, Karl decided to set up KGF Classic Cars, to source original, modern classic cars and share them with like-minded knights of the road.

He says: “As a kid, I would squeeze in the back of our lovely red Mercedes with my brother and sister (seatbelts were not mandatory at that time!) – Mum and Dad in the front and all of us enjoying the outing. I would gaze out at other cars and my brother and I would shout out all the makes and models of the ones going by!

“With encouragement from my father, I entered the world of classic cars at 15, when I saved up and bought a 1964 Riley Elf Mk 2. This car was cleaned and polished every weekend until I was 17 when I threw away my L-plates and took to the road. My interest never subsided, even during my career at BMW – to the point where driving these older cars gave me more pleasure than the modern offerings. Perhaps it is just happy childhood memories, but there is something about those classics which draws me back to them every time . . .”

He added: “I consider it a privilege to meet and do business with people who love them as much as I do. So, whether you are buying or selling – or just browsing (taking a spin down memory lane, perhaps!) I hope you enjoy this website.”

All the vehicles offered by KGF Classic Cars are personally checked, meticulously inspected and driven by us to ensure they meet the incredibly high standards that are becoming very hard to find. The cars are eventually selected with the ultimate aim of providing the new owner with the best possible experience of that model, whatever it may be.
