I suppose that if you’re going to tuck a car away and forget about it for 16 years, the humble little Mini is one of the easiest ones to lose in the corner of a barn, or the back of a garage!

There’s something about the MG RV8 that we’ve always liked. Perhaps it’s the familiar MGB-inspired styling. Perhaps it’s the combination of traditional British roadster character and a wonderfully uncomplicated Rover V8. Or perhaps it’s simply that the RV8 represents a particularly interesting chapter in MG’s history. But when this 1993 ...
