The Wolseley 6/90 production ended in 1959 with the introduction of the Pininfarina designed 6/99. Between 1954 and 1959 the 6/90 was the only car to bear the famous illuminated Wolseley radiator badge. The 6/90 is also somewhat notorious for leading to the sacking of its designer, Gerald Palmer, by BMC's Leonard Lord, in favour of Alec Issigonis. The 6/99 replaced it. Production ended in 1959 as the 6/99 arrived.
