Manufacturer description

SHE'S NEW,  SHE'S A LITTLE BEAUTY, SHE'S A RILEY

Magnificent Motoring in Miniature

Our smart Riley Elf Mk III makes its third appearance registered UAX 85G from 1968, the year in which Riley was merged into British Leyland Motors.  It would only take another year before the Riley production ended and the name disappeared.

Decorated in a muted green body with off-white roof, the interior and seating are finished in pale grey with a  tan dashboard.  Exterior chrome trim is applied to bumpers, door handles, light surrounds and hub caps. The distinctive radiator grille is also chrome and carries the blue diamond shaped Riley badge in the top centre.  The badge appears again in the centre of the boot above the black and silver number plate.
