EXTERIOR
Official MG SV Club records hold detailed particulars for chassis #155 including the original Red Hot Kinetic paint finish, (Code RH), as well as comprehensive factory options and first owner being MG Sports and Racing Ltd. This stunning original example has covered just 11,630 miles from new with a beautifully preserved finish partly owing to a bespoke Paintshield protection kit costing almost £1,900. Unprecedented at the time, this carbon-bodied car is completely smooth with a weave-free uniform gloss paint finish. The high-tensile steel chassis frame was crafted by Vaccari and Bosi in Modena Italy, the carbon fibre mat was made by Britain’s SP Group and constructed by Italy’s Belco Avia from 3,000 different pieces. The result, a complete shell weighing only 65kg and the entire vehicle having an unladen weight of just 1,500kg. In stark contrast and ridiculed as a result, are the Fiat Punto projector headlamps and Fiat Coupe circular rear lights embellished with chrome rings!

INTERIOR
Race style Recaro grabbing sports seats are finished in optional and expensive Oyster leather/Alcantara, (Code OY), the leather sections sourced from the Scottish Bridge of Weir tannery. Slight wear to the driver bolster does not detract from the overall excellent condition. Soft leather, Alcantara and wool coloured-keyed carpets specially dyed in Italy are immaculate. Carbon fibre is clearly visible in the cars structure and stainless-steel trims and carbon finish centre console complete the clean look and contrast beautifully against the green dial instruments. A high specification example to help justify the eye watering price tag when new!

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
Being the SV-R model, this example is fitted with the larger and more powerful 4996cc 385bhp Ford V8 quad-cam light alloy engine developed by tuning specialists Roush Industries. A burbling deep-chested exhaust rumble is intoxicating and immense fun. A massive history folder affirms the cars pampered existence which means this car goes as good as it looks! Perfectly suited to the V8 powerplant is the 4-speed dual-mode Ford automatic gearbox which helps propel the car from 0-60mph in 5.1 secs and a top speed of 175mph.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKE
Unique alloy MG-OZ 5-spoke 18" wheels are wrapped in premium Michelin Pilot Sport tyres measuring 225/40 ZR18 front and 265/40 ZR18 fitted brand new in May 2022. One rear wheel has a minor rub to outer rim. Uprated Brembo discs and floating 4 pot brake callipers combined with Bosch ABS and electronic traction control allow for highly capable stopping power.

HISTORY FILE
