Photo Gallery «Wolseley Hornet Mk II - Mini with luxury and trunk space»
Anyone familiar with the Wolseley Hornet is likely to think of pre-war sports cars. However, with the Hornet, the small, fine British brand launched a luxury version of the revolutionary Austin/Morris Mini in 1961, for which there is still a small circle of enthusiasts today. With more trunk space, it was ultimately also more practical. This report tells the story of the Wolseley Hornet and its brother Riley Elf and shows both models in current and historical images, as well as in the sales literature.
