About the Wolseley 6/110
The Wolseley 6/110 Mark II represents the final evolution of BMC's 'Big Farina' saloons, offering a more refined experience than its Austin Westminster sibling. It is powered by the 2.9-litre C-Series engine, a unit shared with the Austin-Healey 3000, providing smooth torque ideal for the then-new UK motorway network. The Mark II introduced a four-speed floor-change gearbox and improved telescopic rear dampers, significantly enhancing the handling over the earlier Mark I. Distinguished by its illuminated radiator badge and walnut-veneered interior, it remains a quintessential symbol of 1960s British executive and police motoring.
