Wolseley Hornet (Mark III)

Automobiles

The Mark III facelift of 1966 brought wind up windows and fresh air fascia vents to the Wolseley Hornet. Concealed door hinges were introduced two years before these were seen on the Austin and Morris Minis. The Hornet and the Riley Elf both went through three engine versions and ended in 1969, the Hornet being the cheaper of the two cars, while the Riley was the more expensive. Its model years run from 1966 to 1969.
