The Riley Two-Point-Six is an automobile produced by British Motor Corporation Limited (BMC) from August 1957 until 1959. It replaced the Pathfinder as Riley's flagship model when it was announced on 23 August 1957. While its predecessor retained the renowned Riley four-cylinder twin-cam cross-flow engine, coil rear suspension and gearbox, the Two-Point-Six was virtually identical to the Wolseley Six-Ninety Series III. It featured both monotone and duotone paintwork, as did the last of the Pathfinders. As per the Wolseley Six-Ninety Series III, right hand drive cars with a manual gearbox had a right hand gear lever; LHD cars a left hand gear level. An automatic transmission and an overdrive for the manual gearbox were available as options.

  • The Riley Two-Point-Six is an automobile produced by British Motor Corporation Limited (BMC) from August 1957 until 1959. It replaced the Pathfinder as Riley's flagship model when it was announced on 23 August 1957. While its predecessor retained the renowned Riley four-cylinder twin-cam cross-flow engine, coil rear suspension and gearbox, the Two-Point-Six was virtually identical to the Wolseley Six-Ninety Series III.

An automatic transmission and an overdrive for the manual gearbox were available as options. Externally the most obvious differences from the Pathfinder were the bonnet arrangement – while the Pathfinder's grille lifted with the bonnet, the Two-Point-Six, in common with the 6/90, had a fixed grille – and the wheel arches having a raised edge. It used the BMC C-Series straight-6, an engine that produced 101 hp (75 kW). This was actually less than the 2½ Litre Riley "Big Four" straight-4 engine it replaced. The Two-Point-Six was sold to a specific clientele and was never intended to be mass-produced. It sold at the same pro-rata rate as the previous Riley Pathfinder until the end of production in May 1959. It was the last large Riley. Engine: * 2.6 L (2639 cc) C-Series straight-6, 101 hp (75 kW) (en)
  • La 2.6 è un'autovettura di fascia medio-alta prodotta dalla Riley dal 1957 al 1959. Era il modello di punta della gamma offerta dalla casa automobilistica britannica, e sostituì la Riley Pathfinder. Mentre il motore del modello predecessore era stato sviluppato ancora dalla Riley, e quindi aveva installato, ad esempio, un doppio albero a camme in testa ed una testata “cross-flow”, cioè con collettori di aspirazione da un lato della stessa e collettori di scarico dall'altro, il propulsore della 2.6 era quasi identico a quello della Wolseley 6/90. Questo motore della 2.6 era un sei cilindri in linea da 2.639 cm³ di cilindrata che erogava 101 CV di potenza. La 2.6 fu offerta con un solo tipo di carrozzeria, berlina quattro porte. Come le ultime Pathfinder, era disponibile sia con verniciatura bicolore sia con verniciatura monocolore. Esternamente, la differenza più evidente tra la 2.6 e la Pathfinder risiedeva nella struttura del cofano: mentre nella seconda la calandra si alzava con il cofano quando esso veniva sollevato, sulla 2.6 la griglia rimaneva fissa. Il modello non ebbe successo, e fu tolto dal mercato già nel maggio del 1959. Fu l'ultima vettura Riley di grandi dimensioni. (it)
