Landmark Cars: Riley Riviera

摘要

One car that seemed highly unlikely to make it into Landmark Cars was the Farina-designed range of family cars in the Austin A55/Morris Oxford/Wolseley 15/60/MG Magnette MkIII/Riley 4/68 range, launched in the late 1950s. An unexceptional front engine, rear drive layout with uninspiring road manners doesn't mark it out as a Landmark Car. But there is an exception, and my thanks to the Cambridge-Oxford Owners Club for reminding me of a little known Riley variant.
