	Wolseley
		The Wolseley name was around at the dawn of the British motor industry, and its history was closely entwined with that of the two dominant BMC marques, Austin and Morris – right to the very end.
		Wolseley House had to go; it was sold to Barclays Bank in 1926 (although in a nice twist, a redevelopment in 2003 saw it reborn as the upmarket Wolseley Café and Restaurant), and by the end of October that year, Wolseley was in the hands of the Receivers.
		When the last-ever Wolseley model was launched in March 1975 as part of the adventurous, wedge-shaped 18-22 range, it seemed that the company had resigned itself to persisting with this single-model status for the marque, for there was (thankfully) no prospect of an Allegro-based Wolseley model to sit beneath it.

	Garnet Wolseley, 1st Viscount Wolseley Summary
		Wolseley was made a captain at the age of 21, but the authorities later withdrew this order because of his youth.
		Wolseley distinguished himself at the relief of Lucknow under Sir Colin Campbell in November, and in the defence of the Alambagh position under Outram, taking part in the actions of December 22, 1857, of January 12 and January 16, and the repulse of the grand attack of February 21.
		Wolseley continued to serve on Sir Hope Grant's staff in Oudh, and when Grant was nominated to the command of the British troops in the Anglo-French expedition to China in 1860, accompanied him as deputy-assistant quartermaster-general.

		However, the Wolseley company was still allowed a degree of autonomy, and continued to produce unique Wolseley vehicles while drawing on the expertise of the Morris engineers in making pressed steel body work.
		The Wolseley 4/50 was the first discontinued, with an axe in the guise of the new Wolseley 4/44 falling in November 1952.
		There were only two new Wolseley models introduced in the early part of the decade, the Wolseley Six replacement for the 18/85 - essentially the 2.2 OHC litre six from the Austin Maxi squeezed into the 18/85 shell, and the ephemeral Wolseley Wedge 18/22.

		When BMC upgraded and considerably improved the B-Series Farina-styled cars in the autumn of 1961, the Wolseley derivative received all those benefits.
		Riley sections, this involved lengthening the wheelbase, widening the wheel tracks and stiffening up the suspension to turn a rather narrow-tracked and 'topply' car into a much more stable machine.
		There were minor exterior sheet metal changes for the Wolseley version, which inherited the reduced-height rear tail-fins and the new tail-lamps to go with them; the rear overriders were moved outboard to line up neatly with the rear lamp clusters.

	Austin 1800 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Additional badge-engineered Morris 1800 and Wolseley 18/85 variants were launched, in 1966 and 1967, catering for BMC dealerships selling these marques, and their loyal customers.
		The Australian-built Austin Kimberley, Austin Tasman and (for New Zealand) Morris Tasman "X6" models of 1970 were based on the 1800 platform and retained the same doors, albeit with some changes.
		In 1975, all three models were replaced by the wedge-shaped ADO71, or 18-22 series, which bore the same names at Austin and Morris (1800 and 2200), while the Wolseley variant had no official model name save for being marketed as "the Wolseley saloon".

		In 1967 BMC added the Wolseley 18/85 to its well designed, 1800 "Landcrab" range.
		Unusually for BMC the new cars were only built in Austin/Morris and Wolseley trim, they managed to resist offering identical Riley and MG variants.
		The 18/85 used the same 1800 B-series engine as the rest of the range, however a 96bhp, twin carb "S" version joined the line-up in 1969 along with the MkII version of the standard car.
