New MOT:~

Bob Meadows · Apr 21st, 2022, 14:59

Had the 240 in for an early MOT today:~
Just the usual advisory "Its a pleasure working on this"

Drivers door window stopped working on the way over to the garage- mentioned it to John the garage owner and jokingly said it will probably start on the way home- guess what, the car must have been pleased as well!
Bob.

I like the parking light; is there one on the other side as well?

Great looking car, how old is the car if you don't mind me asking, cam.

Hope you are well, the parking light is on one side although on the Riley it has o/s & n/s.
Restored quite a few of these over the years as I think they go well as a period part (generally via ebay)

Cam:~
The car is a 1988 2.0L GL Injection (Purchased from a forum member -Bristol area 2016)
Mileage is just 85'000 with very low previous ownership and all known from the day it was "born" in the Exeter area.
Full history & well serviced so the standard is maintained.
Vergo wheels added (Home restored) some time back but the originals have been retained.
Some chrome trim modifications made together with underside wax treatments- cloth interior in excellent condition.
The car runs great and has never faulted.
Thanks for the comments
Regards Bob.
