As far as I can tell, Riviera was first available in UK from Oct 62 as a special order and LHD (as here), but I think there was an approved RHD conversion done in UK (Ruddspeed??). Anyone able to spot any made-for-UK elements (lights, mirrors etc)? Plate originally issued in 1953, now on a Merc SL.![[Image: systemriviera2.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/systemriviera2.jpg) ![[Image: systemriviera3.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/systemriviera3.jpg) ![[Image: systemriviera4.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/systemriviera4.jpg) ![[Image: systemriviera5.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/systemriviera5.jpg) There may be a bad pun to explain this car as locations included Brixham, Paignton and Torquay, which are known as "the English Riviera". |

I think it's chosen on purpose. Always referred to as a Riviera never a Buick. Talked about multiple times even when it's not around. -"Are you after the girl or the car?" -"Oh I'm not fussy" or "A girl with a Riviera can please herself" and many other instances |
