Description
A beautiful family saloon, perfectly capable of taking a family of four or five adults for a Sunday picnic or to your local weekend classic car show.
This lovely 55 year old girl not only looks the part but drives wonderfully too. She starts first turn of the key, cruises quietly at 60 mph, and is an absolute joy to be out in.
The exterior is smart and presentable, with glossy paintwork and a tidy overall finish. The steel wheels remain in fine condition, complemented by equally sound tyres.
Inside, she is equally as good, a new carpet set adds to the charm, while the seats and door cards are in great condition too.
The engine bay, boot, and underside are all tidy and well cared for, with nothing I can see demanding immediate attention.
Out on the road, she’s a pleasure to drive, quiet and smooth, with an engine that pulls effortlessly and a gearbox that changes easily, giving an enjoyable experience.
Until recently, when her most recent owner sadly passed away, she was MOT’d every year despite being MOT exempt. She is accompanied by a British Motor Heritage Trust Certificate, along with a selection of invoices for work carried out during his last five or six years of ownership.
Launched in 1961, the Wolseley 16/ 60 was the last and most refined of BMC’s Farina-styled saloons. Powered by the reliable 1622cc B-Series engine and trimmed with wood veneer and quality fittings, it offered understated luxury with everyday usability until production ended in 1971.
Please keep in mind that shes 55 years old, and like any classic car, there may always be minor areas for attention or potential improvement.
