MG V8 Book Launch
Our book launch event will include a presentation from the author David Knowles touching on his aims for what is a welcome sequel to his very popular earlier book, what interesting additional material he found during his researches, details of the people he was in touch with, the interesting material he has included on the later MGV8 models and the significant section (around a third of the book) on the RV8 predevelopment story.

>
Reports on the Best RV8 Mods and Best MGBGTV8 Mods surveys
