weitere Informationen/more info The Brooklands on offer here was meticulously built between 2004 and 2007 by the well-known UK Riley specialists Allen Clear as a sibling to his own 1930s racing version using original Brooklands or correctly modified 9 parts only. The door-less body with its shorter pintail has been painted in the typical blue-green colour and is made of lightweight aluminium without any wooden under-construction.

The MK-7 engine was completely rebuilt with correct Omega pistons, sharper camshafts, as well as a Brooklands water pump and – magneto, delivering approx. 50bhp. The twin SU carburettors were overhauled and fitted with new needles and seals. The original Brooklands radiator has been completely restored and soldered with a new honeycomb grid. The non-synchromesh gearbox is revised and has the crisp Brooklands remote gear lever. The large Le-Mans-fuel tank is also new and made out of aluminium and shows the typical quick release filler cap with metal wings as used for the racing version (the sports car version of the Brooklands had a "Mickey Mouse-version" of this cap, i.e. a chromed metal casting with two spherical wingtips).

The axles and brakes, as well as the Hartford shock absorbers were also overhauled. Also the steering is original Brooklands and has the correct three-spoke steering wheel with the two adjusting levers for ignition and throttle. The dash is equipped with the original Rotax-switch panel and contains in addition to the correct Jeager tachometer also gauges for water temperature and oil pressure.

For admission in Germany turn signals and hazard lights were retrofitted together with a matching Jaeger original speedometer. The car is still wearing the original 6-holes spoke wheels with period-style Blockley tyres. The seats are covered in grey leather with grey piping. The car comes with a dividable bespoke tonneau of black fabric that could by fixed single-sided for racing purposes (see pictures). A practical storage net for the tonneau is located behind the back rest.

To register the unstamped Brooklands chassis a chassis number of a 1933 Riley Falcon was donated.
