Certainly looks like it. You could have paid twice the money in 1937 and not bought a much better car. http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/14262/lot/468/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/hk11_yah/galleries/72157627917333473/ -- Last edit: 2013-12-18 17:31:20 |

Designation changed to 1937 Wolseley 14/56 Tourer ex-police [Series II] following discussion in 'The Bletchley Circle' entry. "Listed as 14/56 Tourer, rather than 18/80 as explained "One of just a handful of original tourers produced for police use, most of which Sir Winston Churchill used as transport and platforms for public speaking, CCE 858 is understood to be the only surviving example. Whilst many photographs exist of him with these cars, none have yet come to light which include this car's registration, however, it is extremely likely that CCE 858 would have played a role in transporting him at some point. ....... two year restoration (completed in 2010) which included the fitment of an 18hp engine to improve performance and the car is now badged as an 18hp...... it has appeared in a number of films and television programmes including Poirot and Bletchley Park." |
