Riley Imp, at the Curborough speed trials, May 2007 (#8/65).
This Riley is quoted as having a 1496cc engine and was built in 1934. The original 1934/1935 Imps I believe came with an engine of 1087cc and were fed via twin Zenith carburettors. The Riley is seen here at speed driving up to the far hairpin on the circuit.
