Lot details

Date First Registered: 20/12/1972
MOT Expiry Date: 12/08/2025
Current V5: YES

Current V5 present. Paperwork includes an Owner's Handbook, a Service and Maintenance record containing two written service stamps, a current MOT certificate, a Haynes Owners Workshop Manual, a car club magazine, a Morris 1100 Workshop Manual, printed instructions for removing and replacing a speedometer, and some invoices.

The vendor has provided the following:

  • Wolseley 1300 auto ( 20 left, 10 SORN, 10 not)
  • Had the car for about 18 months, replaced some hoses, new 3-core radiator, water pump, sorted fuel and temp gauges. New MOT in August 2024. New solenoid
  • The original seats were replaced with Vanden Plas ones inc. picnic pull-downs on the back seats
  • I believe the car had a 2 tone bare metal re-spray a couple of years ago. The previous owner claimed approx £5000 spent
  • MOT, Tax and ULEZ exempt

Inside the car:

  • In the boot is a car cover, some spares, the original rocker box cover, grey paint and black paint some 20/50 oil
  • No obvious rust/rot underneath ( MOT, I went underneath with the tester)
  • No apparent oil leaks
  • Auto box works well
  • Believe the mileage is correct based on MOT history

Bad points:

  • It is 52 years old and needs care as built out of tin
  • Internal dashboard illumination lights not working
  • Passenger seat picnic pull down slightly warped
  • Slight breakthrough on the front driver wing (but has been Cured rust treated)
