I can't quite believe this myself, but we have another Oxford Blue. One of only 258 made don't forget. Chassis 1170 was imported by HS Imports in January 2004. They sold it for £17,000 in May 2004. After a year of ownership the car was then sold through Brown & Gammons to the previous owner. Servicing work for the last owner has been carried out by the MGOC workshop in Cambridge.

An MPH speedo was fitted by HS on importation and the original Klm speedo is in the boot. The total mileage indicated (combination of the two instruments) is some 36,250 Mls. We see no reason at all to doubt this figure, although normally we would prefer to see some original service documentation from Japan.

The car has a modern stereo fitted and we are currently having the wheels refurbished. Recently we have had quite a few Blue and Red RV8s. However we know from experience that this will not last, and sometime soon we will be wondering when we will ever see another. So the message is get one secured now while you can.
