Alexander ◊ 2007-04-30 11:31	Jim is absolutely right. I am not sure if it is the first version Riley 4/Sixty Eight (1959-61) or it's clone MG Magnette Mk.III (1959-61), or the second Riley 4/Seventy Two (1961-69) or MG Magnette Mk.IV (1961-68) respectively. The only differed by a slightly longer wheelbase and wider wheel tracks. The small image above, which has the correct colour scheme, is a Riley 4/Seventy Two. I would suggest to use this name.
