1933 Riley Nine Kestrel – APJ 564

This Nine Kestrel was in excellent condition when it was seen and it was seen at the Heritage Motor Centre in 2012. It was registered in 1933 and it has a 1.1 Litre (1089cc) Straight 4 engine propelling it along which runs on Petrol. This car belonged to an RAF Wing Commander and during WW2 he laid up the car. The car was put for sale in 1953 and purchased by Chris Goodall. Miss Goodall did not just use the Riley as an everyday driver but also took the vehicle on her travels. It became a very familiar car at Riley shows across the Britain; the car was always driven, not carried on a trailer, to shows. The car was donated to the museum by Miss Goodalls travelling companion, Miss Hilda Merlane when Goodall passed away.
