MG X Power SV-R Auto (2004) For Sale

inished in Red Hot Kinetic-metallic with contrasting Oyster cream leather/alcantara interior and has covered only 10,000 miles.

Probably one of the rarest British built modern classics available…

When did you last see one? Not for the shy or retiring motorist!

Launched in 2002 there were 56 RHD cars manufactured in total, (including the SV 320BHP) and only 14 RHD of the this more powerful SV-R variant (400BHP). This Auto model is one of only 7 vehicles produced, so truly a rare thing indeed.

A full carbon-fibre bodied car (manufactured by De Tomaso in Modena, Italy) and assembled onto a steel chassis with all the engineering and assembly taking place in the UK.

The SV-R is powered by a mighty Ford V8 5.0 litre 32 valve motor with a reported top speed of 175 mph and 0-60 mph in 4.9 seconds. Retail price when new was £85,000 (the auto was a £2,000 option) on top of the £83K base price. Many options were available to further personalise the cars. Options on this car include, uprated brakes, electric seats, climate control, many polished carbon-fibre parts, sports exhaust, Becker system with ‘satnav’ and 6 infinity speakers. The car benefits from a quality ‘paint protection’ system and the body work, wheels and interior are immaculate.

With 510N.m of torque this car is a dream to drive. Serious performance whenever it’s needed, or a long distance tourer, this engine gearbox combo is truly exceptional. This single previous owner car comes with an excellent history file, and all original books and keys.
