There is something not quite right about this car. The badge on the boot lid says 15/50 (in large characters which, I think, may only have been used on some of the last ones produced) but the chrome decoration on the side is that used on the Wolseley 4/44. The 15/50 had longer chrome trim and it was curved, not straight. Rather than a 15/50, I think that this is a 4/44 that has been fitted at some time with a replacement boot lid from a 15/50. |

It must also have been fitted with a B series engine and twin spotlights instead of single as well as a new boot lid. 4/44 was 1250cc using the old Nuffield XP type engine out of the MG YB, and the 15/50 was introduced in June 1956. |

MFN was a Canterbury series, June-Nov 1956 so the DVLA date of September for 480 looks genuine. Plate info says 15/50 Registration MFN 480 Make WOLSELEY Model 15/50 ... and it's been displayed as a 15/50 at classic events - https://www.flickr.com/photos/imagetaker1/2774677054 , http://nice-reg.co.uk/number-plates/a-z/M/MFN480.html . Comment here suggests MFN 480 has been used as a floating film plate (with USL 507 and BOA 430B) on a 1968 Oxford S6 (really PAD 124G) in a 2006 film called Sixty Six, but that does not mean it's dodgy here. So in summary, we probably have a genuine 1956 15/50 on its original plates, but restored with the wrong side trim and the boot badge fitted from March 1958. |
