A Classic Moment

Took some of our visitors on a trip to Omeath this afternoon.
Spotted this lovely old Riley Elf on its way back from a Vintage Rally.
The Riley Elf was manufactured in Britain from 1961 to 1969.
It was similar to the more famous Mini but boasted a boot, nicknamed the Riley Shelf.

A very nice find. A well built and practical "mini" in the day. V

A great sight. I have always liked the look of the Riley Elf and the surroundings here are ideal.

How wonderful. I remember that our teacher at the 'top of the junior school' drove one of these in green. Most likely a 1962/63 machine though - this is from '65.

No doubt driven by one of the little people?
