RV8

MG-RV8 will owning one be fun and joy, or sadness and frustration.

So not realy any disasterous faults that they all suffer from, just accept their limitations.

Err, I've just looked at your Profile - reliable Japanese cars, and not always so reliable German cars, do you know and appreciate about driving, owning, servicing and maintaining a classic car, an English classic car at that

I always say most people can afford to buy them but less can afford to own them and I'm not just talking about the money

Some are low mileage cars because they are "cherished" others because the owners don't want to admit their mistake in buying them

when i left school i went to work at a british leyland dealer so had 20 odd years of servicing and repairing old british cars, or in them days lots were new, but i wasnt the one paying the bills. i never had the chance to work on an RV8, so if they are no more unreliable (unreliable might be to strong a word for them) then i can live with that.

well you sound very qualified except now as you say it's your money

you'd have to ask owners that actually regularly drive their RV8s what to look for but I doubt you'd have anything much more than on a MGB

(TVR Chim - bigger boot, faster, quicker ect.)

Good luck

hmm even in the MG section you seem to say a TVR would be a better buy. oh well time for a rethink.

Hi, to be honest i dont realy know what i want. i have a couple of cars, one i like to drive and one i dont realy like to drive. the one i like is a MK3 MR2, so i thought get something er well a bit more manly, and as an RV8 passed me a week or so ago i thought why not.

Hi, just sold a MK2 MR2, very good car, reason i sold it was getting caught in a sudden rain down pour and no where to pull over to put the targa tops back on. i have to say i enjoy driving the MR2 i have now and manage no probs with storage space, its just the feeling that everone is thinking 'hairdresser'.
