Description

Built in 1949 and delivered to Garage Waeny in Wabern (BE), this Riley was registered for its first owner on the 17th July 1950. In 1979 he sold the car back to Garage Waeny where the elegant British saloon spent the next 30 years, driven only sparingly. In 2019 the saloon was acquired by the vendor who subsequently had the carburettor, the fuel tank, the fuel pump, the radiator and the water pump overhauled. Coachwork and interior are in original condition showing a lovely patina. The engine and gearbox, having covered a mere 61’750 kilometres are working faultlessly. A beautiful and elegant Riley with a full history, a FIVA ID and the most recent Veteran MOT dating from September 2020.
