Description

**This exceptional Riley Sprite recreation was originally built by an enthusiast who also owned an original Sprite as part of his extensive collection. Wishing to preserve the original car for shows and concours events, he commissioned this build specifically for longer rallies and more demanding road use without sacrificing the spirit or performance of the iconic Sprite.

The car was constructed using a 1936 Riley 12/ 4 Kestrel with matching engine and chassis numbers as the donor. All running gear was carefully modified to correct Sprite “underslung” specification, resulting in an authentic driving experience with improved durability for spirited touring.

Engine to exact "Sprite" configuration, with a touch of extra tuning to deliver the added performance suited for modern driving conditions.
This is an absolutely fabulous driving Riley, featuring matching engine and chassis numbers.

A fabulous Riley to drive offering all the thrill of an original Sprite at a fraction of the price, and ready for serious driving enjoyment.

The car recently passed a new MOT in Belgium meaning no import taxes for EU buyers.**
