1966 Wolseley 1100 - EUX 869D

1966 Wolseley 1100 - EUX 869D
This old 'land crab' looked pretty neat overall although there did appear to be something going on with that front wing.

Based on the BMC ADO16 platform it was one of several economical small family cars built by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and, later, British Leyland.

It was launched in 1962 and for most of the next decade the ADO16 was consistently the UK's best-selling car.

The ADO16 was marketed under various make and model names including: Austin 1100 and 1300; MG 1100 and 1300; and Riley Kestrel as well as the Wolseley 1100, 1275, and 1300 to name but a few.

Badge engineering ... don't you just miss it!

Did I ever tell you that my Mom had a brand new Wolseley 1100 in 1967, and I was lucky enough to be "given" the car, firstly, to drive down to our Natal Coast in July, for the holidays, and then drive her back to boarding school, where I kept her until the end of the year - special memories!
