Notes
Issued between 1954-55 with this numbering, this Riley has a very fine cream paint finish with bright original silver detailing at the radiator and lights, green wheels. Delightful, unused example:
Baseplate (some tarnishing) has tow hook aperture and large print wth 40A. Original smooth tyres are well-shaped.

Negligible dot or two if you want to fault it and a couple of little casting marks.
The box is strongly-coloured and complete. Correct colour spot. MInor age wear/grubbiness and numbering in pen on the top surface/end flap. Little end flap tear.
