A portfolio of international articles drawn from three continents trace the development of the Riley Rm series between 1945 & 1959. Models reported on include the RMA, RMB, RMC, RMD, RME, RMF, Pathfinder and the Two-Point-Six. Featured are road, long term and used car tests, new model introductions and updates, plus full specifications, performance data and helpful advice on acquiring a good pre-owned Riley RM and 2.6

This paperback volume is another in the useful series of Brooklands Portfolios and covers the Rileys of the immediate post-war period starting with the one and a half litre announced in the Autumn of 1945. The book follows the standard format for the series with articles reproduced from magazines in chronological order of when they first appeared. The final model covered is the 2.6, developed from the Pathfinder but using the BMC C Series engine but this does not have the following today that the earlier RM series have and perhaps that tells something about the car itself. The book concludes with a number of articles taken from more recent magazines dealing with these sought after Rileys as classic cars. The quality of reproduction is very good and Brooklands Books are to be congratulated on their work in tidying up the scans from the original magazine articles. Again thsi is a good value book making available a great deal of detail about early post-war Rileys. --The Bulletin of the Vintage Sports-Car Club No. 276
