40a and 158 Riley Saloon (1947-55)

Here is a type 2a trade box for the 40A Riley Saloon What is interesting is the presence of an over label I suspect that the printer has done the original label with an incorrect stock number.It is not possible to determine what the incorrect number is but it certainly has three digits followed by an A.It could possibly be 120A but I would have to attempt to steam the second label off in order to verify exactly what is there and I do not fancy trying to do that.

This is what the top picture in the above thread should look like. Instead of the two separate photos which I loaded the system has put in the same photo twice.

At the moment you can only load one photo per submission. If you try and add more than one you get the last one multiple times. It is possible to edit and resubmit the post to add multiple images. A new version of the forum software that removes this restriction is currently being tested.

The other problem is with the counter. I am still a fresh boarder with 27 posts. That is exactly the same as I was 9 months ago, I have done at least 50 or 60. Why do we persist with the counter if it is absolutely meaningless?

I don't have any control on the counter, part of standard functionality. I note you are now showing 28, I am on 52 will see if it goes to 53 after this.

It has gone to 53. I will try and count your posts to the Forum, note articles submissions are not included in this count.

Hi Dave, I have done a search on your username and it returns exactly 28 posts, so I think the counter is working Ok. Peter

Please look at my post for the Austin Champ in Factory Errors of over nine months ago. At that point my count was 27 the post I did today shows 27. I will go through all the threads one by one and count exactly what I have done, I know it will be more than 27.

If you use the advanced serch facility you can search on all posts by user name. This is what I did.

So why am I stuck on 29

You aren't you are now 30, the counter seems to be working perfectly. I will be now 57 after this post

The reference number under the 40A stuck on label is 130A, this must have been the initial intended reference number before deciding on the 40 series of models.
