 |  £24,950 
- reimported RV8 in Woodcote Green - trade sale
 Advert says "with 
45,000 miles, in stunning condition throughout, with wind deflector, full tonneau 
cover and black mohair hood. The gearbox is the later and much preferred K380 
model with a stainless steel exhaust and recently fitted with an EZ power steering 
system. Recent MOT and service". 180322
 
 In 
11 months this car appears again with an offer price uplift of £8,150 or 
48.5%! The advert says it has an EZ EPAS fitted which may lift the price by 
around £2,000 but taking that into account that is still an uplift of 37%! 
The text of the advert refers to a K380 gearbox, presumably an incorrect reference 
to an R380.
