I took this photograph in part of the parking area set aside for various owners clubs at the Vintage Sports Car Club's Boulogne and Hawthorn Trophies meeting at Oulton Park in June 2006. Amongst several other Rileys, this is a 1935 Riley Imp built on the Riley Nine chassis and using its 4-cylinder inline 1,087cc engine. The Riley Imp was produced from 1933 to 1935 but production figure records were destroyed during WW2 and it is estimated that about 120-150 cars were produced in those three years.
A tidy, honest-looking example.
Just discovered that my neighbour has recently acquired an Imp as a project, an E-reg Californian. Must try and get a proper look at that one day and have a chat with him about it.
The hiss and pounding of the dreaded machine. The soldiers of the trenches cower in fear at the sound.
The Imp!
With two powerful legs built for all terrains, a 6cm cannon on its left side and a smaller machine gun on the left.
Via Paolo D'Amico whose brother-in-law being Italian and just as car mad as Paolo himself is , remembered what was in Paolo's garage at home when he saw an Imp DHC flying past... He only had a mobile phone with camera at hand, hence the not brilliant quality. However, considering both cars were moving at the time this picture was taken, I can only say: full marks to our Italian friend for capturing this Bella macchina Inglese!
