Riley 1.5 in Grey.
Front 3/4 view of LJC 26. Rust has seen off most of these classic Rileys sadly. The floorpan is based on that of the Morris Minor. If I could find a good solid one of these I'd be very tempted.

Photographs of Rileys, 1.5s and other old vehicles in Wales
- Classic 1.5 from Riley.
- Built in: 1962.
- Colour(s): Grey.
In June 2006 we spent a week in Wales, and were fortunate enough to find a number of interesting old vehicles to photograph. The Riley shown above is one of 90 such photos that I've put up on the web. Many of the photographs were taken at a small classic and vintage vehicle gathering at Parc Glynllifon, near Caernarfon. A few pictures were taken at other locations in this area, details of which are given where applicable.
Years ago a drive around rural Wales used to turn up quite a few interesting roadside relics, left to moulder outside old houses and garages, but such discoveries are becoming a distant memory as areas get tidied up, and old buildings levelled to make way for more identikit housing. The best bet then to see classic Rileys and 1.5s is at vintage gatherings such as that at Parc Glynllifon. I hope you find these photos of interest. More automotive pictures from our trip to Wales can be found on the main Welsh car photos page.
