  • This delightful Riley Monaco remained in the same family for nearly 66 years and became a ‘celebrity’ when used in the Antiques Road Trip driven by Charles Hanson and Natasha Raskin-Sharp in July 2023
  • The 'Plus Ultra' designation signifies the model's ultimate evolution, benefiting from years of engineering development since the Nine's 1926 debut
  • Originally sold in March 1933 to a Mr. Gilbert, it soon passed to Stockbroker Norman Holt who used the Monaco until 1974 before handing it over to his son who used it until 2000
  • Whilst in new ownership it was subject to a full overall and still presents in magnificent condition today. Mechanically on the button it drove faultlessly to our photo session with the highly sought after ‘Riley Ski Lady’ radiator mascot leading the way
  • The history file is both fascinating and comprehensive covering the sale by Brooklands racer and garage owner, Jack Fairman, and further driving anecdotes from the Holt family. The history and its marriage to the Riley are remarkable survivors. Naturally, the original instruction book of the 1933 Model Riley Nine and a period copy of The Book of the Riley Nine are included. Still on its original registration number and MOT’d until September 2026
  • Surprising nimble, this lovely Monaco epitomises driving in the thirties and in this condition could offer hours of carefree motoring this summer
