Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Black painted wire wheels, wind wings. Restored 1991 94 with some upgrades (shell bearings, chassis stiffening, headers, oil filter, etc.) to make it suitable for modern tours and rally events. Very good cosmetics, clean and showing some use.

Market commentary

Rileys are cult cars, but successful in their time and appreciated for their good performance and persistence. This is a very good one and is, in the UK at least, appreciated.
