Riley 12/6 March (Special). (1933-34)

In the early 1930's, many of the bodies sold on the nine chassis were adapted to fit the new 12/6 chassis. The March was no exception, with it's 2/4 seater sports bodywork being offered with the small six engine. However, with no survivors, and few genuine records of the model, production is assumed to have been at the low end of the single figures!
