Thanks for posting those - do we know if OMO 263 is still alive?

Hi,
Sadly OMO 263 is no longer with us. It was used as a press demonstrator and as a road test car - both in the Motor (as scanned by Rileynz) and also in Autocar (Nov 1957). Built on 9th Oct '57 - it was the 26th 1.5 built. The number plate OMO originates from Abingdon, and the 'OMO' series of numbers were used by the factory on a number of cars (including the 'works' cars) and were regularly swapped around - one of the Riley OMO numbers is now on an MGA!
Trust this is of some interest,
Roger |
