Goves attended the H&H Auction at Chateau Impney at Droitwich Spa in December
where a Factory MGBGTV8 in Damask Red was listed with an estimate of just £5-7,000
which he "found quite disturbing – hence my attendance! I did ponder
if this was a typo in the catalogue and that it should have read £15-17,000!
The car was Damask Red 0428, the second most popular colour produced, and in very
good order, paintwork wise, and with leather seats. It had been fitted with a
Webasto sunroof (a popular option) and had a non-standard gauge fitted to the
centre of the dashboard between the rev counter and the speedometer. The engine
bay was not restored but clean and tidy. I’m pleased (and relieved) to report
that it sold | after
brisk bidding by two bidders for £14,560 – a credible result, further
underpinning the V8 values researched by the V8 Register". With the addition
of the buyer's premium of 12% plus VAT that would make the purchase cost £16,657
around 10% below our guide price of £18,540 for a Condition 1 chrome bumper
MGBGTV8.
