Riley elf 1966 excellent original car SOLD

Genuine 59, 800 miles with full history . original purchase invoice in 1966. (supplied by e. a. Miller & son, bmc agents, crewkerne, somerset) 
the car has had 3 owners until 2016 who all lived in same village since new! I think this is the best elf or hornet on the market at the moment and certainly the most original bodywork.
the only work carried out on the body are new cills and a rear subframe which were fitted in 1995. all other panels are original including the excellent floors which still have there number tags attached. Due to age marks and paint fading the elf was given a full bare metal respray in 2016 in its original cumberland green colour. I have picture of before, during and after the first class respray.
the carpets have been replaced and i have treated the original leather seats which now look excellent.
i have fitted a new steering rack, tyres, water pump, all hoses, clutch slave cylinder, battery, rebuilt distributor, new leads and points etc.
the original 998cc engine is quiet, has good oil pressure and uses no oil. It pulls extremely well. the gearbox is quiet and the syncros are all good.
the elf is condition 1 and must be one of the best original elfs available.
if this was a 1966 mini in this condition it would be 15k, the elf has a better engine, more sound deadening and much better interior.
there is a detailed history file, original hand book and workshop manual included.
please phone me with any questions, i will not reply to any silly offers. Dave the details below
