Description:In Brief:
On the Surface: This 1958 Wolseley 15/50 Saloon presents as a charming, ‘original-feel’ example, finished in Yukon Grey with a contrasting red interior trim. A UK right-hand drive model with matching numbers, it retains its original registration number. Maintenance & History: The car comes with extensive documentation that includes a British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate confirming it is a UK RHD matching numbers example. It also includes an original Wolseley 15/50 service chart, a Wolseley 4/44 and 15/50 workshop manual, invoices totaling around £2,000, and an original Wolseley advertisement. This level of documentation, along with a few issues of the ‘Wolseley World’ club magazine gives the car good provenance. This 15/50 was originally supplied by Wadhams Ltd of Waterlooville and was later supplied by Newmil Garage, a Morris and Wolseley dealer in New Milton (shown by a dashboard plaque still inside the car), reflecting its local roots., before spending most of its working life in West Moors, Dorset. With just two former keepers and having been with its current owner for the past four years this is a low ownership example that has not changed hands too often. The Model: The Wolseley 15/50 was an updated version of the Wolseley 4/44, with the most significant change being the introduction of the BMC B-series engine. While similar to the MG Magnette in design, the 15/50 was less powerful, producing 55 bhp due to its single SU carburettor. Sale Insight: This well-documented and locally significant example is ideal for a buyer looking for a Wolseley 15/50 with a rich history. Its low number of former owners and authentic documentation make it a strong candidate for those looking to invest in a 15/50. |
