Illustrated with 400 pictures, including concept cars, design sketches and specially commissioned photography.
David Knowles is one of the foremost MG historians of his generation, and MG V8 digs deep to deliver a story rich in hitherto undiscovered detail. This book is in some ways a return to David's book writing roots, for it was another MG V8 book, written in 1994 when he was the Secretary of the MG Car Club's V8 Register, which set him on the path of mining enthusiastically into British sports car history. The earlier book only covered the cars up to and including the launch of the MG RV8, and the subsequent twenty years have seen fascinating MG V8 developments.
