This one has short nose mean 4-cylinder RMA or RME.

RM 1.5-Litre Saloon will be correct.

I agree: a Riley but I can't say the name ; 2.5 ???

Only main exterior difference between 1.5-Litre and 2.5-Litre is wheelbase.
Extra length in wheelbase spent to longer engine compartment for six-in-line.

Elegant, good handling postwar sedan. With 6-cyl. engine +90 mph fast.

There was never a six cylinder engine fitted to the RM Riley. The larger 2 1/2 litre engine was still a four and was a development of the 2443cc engine first fitted in the 1937 Big Four. The six cylinder engine was not even fitted in the later Pathfinder, only being introduced in the 2.6 litre, from 1957 onwards. The car in the picture is almost surely an RMA, the recognition point being the lack of rear spats, which were fitted to the facelifted, and most desirable RME except for the first few months of its production, but not to the RMF.

The 1.5 litre car was a bit gutless, but with torsion bar front suspension and rack and pinion steering at least handled well, and would lose a large American barge on British roads, until you found a straight bit!

Ups, didn't read well a information bucket. :X

So, Riley RMA 1.5-Litre. She was most popular too.

John, thanks for correction. :)
