Hi Hannah,
I can find no record that this Riley is still about (in the UK anyway) . There are no details showing for Tax, Insurance or MOT.
Do you have reason to believe it may still be out there somewhere?
Someone may be able to check other Riley records somewhere though as a better update.

Hi Darren,
Thank you so much for that information. I have no idea where this car maybe so at least you have helped rule out certain avenues. I believe this photo was taken in 1963, can you by any chance identify the make or model from this photograph?
Thank you so much for getting back to me, it means a lot.
Regards,
Hannah

As you suggested it looks like a Riley Lynx to me, more than that I'm not expert enough to say. (I've only recently bought back my Dad's car so fairly new to these myself.)
Maybe someone with more knowledge on here can confirm for you.......?

CNW 125 is recorded as a 1/5 litre Lynx in the David Styles book 'As Old as the Industry'. It is not listed in the recent membership list of The Riley Register, so could well have been exported. Many exported cars have been rebodied, so the car may still survive, but not obviously as a Lynx.
