Just arrived at The Garage (awaiting preparation)
1935 Riley Imp - 50 years in one ownership
A thoroughbred in the true sense of the term - the Riley Imp really looked the part with its long bonnet, flowing wings and short tail, making it one of the most striking and iconic sports cars of the period
• Comprehensive history from new and in the hands of the late Revd John Gathercole for 50 years, who wrote the book of ‘The Riley Imp’ and this car is featured on the cover
• New ‘fast road’ engine was built by Blue Diamond at Bicester Heritage - (original block will accompany the car) Fitted with ENV preselector gearbox.
• Finished in Connaught green with tan leather trim
• It is a beautifully original car, restored by its previous owner with just the right amount of patina following years of careful maintenance.
A much-cherished example of this delightful and iconic Riley is ready to participate in a wide variety of events from Sprints, Hill climbs and European rallies.
