RILEY RM SERIES

Saloon RME 1.5l (1954)

1954 Riley RME 1.5l twin cam presented in black over cream with tan leather interior.
Despite producing some fine small saloons and sporting cars while carving out an enviable competition record for itself during the early 1930s, Riley had lost its battle to remain independent and was part of the Nuffield Organisation by the decade's end. Rileys of the immediate post-war years were, nevertheless, recognisably products of the 'old firm'. Most popular of these was the 1.5 litre RMA sports saloon, which came with torsion bar independent front suspension, hydro-mechanical brakes and Riley's classic twin-camshaft, overhead-valve engine in four-cylinder guise. An improved version, the RME, with fully hydraulic brakes - appeared in 1952 and continued in production until 1955.
This lovely example of this British classic is presented in black over cream with tan leather interior. This Riley had renovation work carried out twenty years ago and still presents extremely well today with the work standing the test of time, the paint still has a good sheen the chrome work is lovely and the interior having recently been recovered in good quality soft leather with excellent door cards and headlining makes this a very good usable classic. This wonderful classic Riley comes with a good history folder with old invoices and photos of the restoration, invoices and letters to the owners club. A delightful classic in great condition which is ready to be enjoyed. This elegant saloon drives effortlessly and is a great experience as she cruises along. This beautiful car is just waiting to be enjoyed in new hands and will not be out of place on the showground. Absolutely any inspection is welcome and viewing is highly recommended.
