BMC Farina model? |

Is that chrome diagonal on the front wing unique to Wolseleys? |

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolseley_15/60 Yes, it's how they split the two tone paint scheme on the 15/60 and the 16/60 but it's still there on the monotone cars. It's the same arrangement on the big 3 litre Wolseleys as well. -- Last edit: 2017-06-20 19:45:51 |

... and on the 1100/1300 [ADO16]. But not on the Hornet or 18/85 and Six landcrabs. I think this is 6/99 or 6/110 rather than 15/60 or 16/60, with colours which make me go to 6/110. But won't argue if 15/60 or 16/60 preferred by others. |

I think I'd agree with the larger car. I was trying to get to grips with the boot lid design, and that would answer it. |

Glad you agree, because it means we can have this "Wolseley 300 - home market name: Wolseley 6/99 and 6/110 In an attempt to borrow some upmarket appeal (from Mercedes-Benz), the Danish distributor DOMI used the 300 name on the 6-cylinder Wolseleys from 1959 onwards. This proved to be a successful move, with these models outselling the contemporary Westminsters and Princesses by more than 2 to 1." - Link to "www.aronline.co.uk" |

Shows you what I know, I thought it was a Peugeot when I listed it. Instead it turns out to be something rare and the first on the site (with this name anyway!). |

They were all styled by Pininfarina who spread his talents rather widely in the 1960s, so confusion understandable |

Most of the cars in this film never made it stateside. Didn't see any in person when I was over there. |
