Here's a Wolseley http://gblandco.com/gb/woclub/members/mahamoor.html and here's a Riley http://www.heritageweddingcars.com/riley.htm .

I see that the owner of the wedding car Riley thinks it was the first "production saloon" to do 100mph. This is utter rubbish, he has obviously never heard of Bentley or Jaguar. -- Last edit: 2014-05-21 19:27:50
