Wolseley 32/80

Automobiles

The Wolseley 32/80 was a top-class car that Wolseley introduced in 1929 alongside the smaller eight-cylinder 21/60, and it was the maker's flagship. It had an in-line eight-cylinder engine of 4,022 cubic centimetres with overhead valves worked by rocker arms. The chassis had a wheelbase of 3,581 millimetres, the four-door saloon body was 4,293 millimetres long and 1,791 millimetres wide, and the top speed was 112 kilometres per hour. It was withdrawn in 1930 without a successor, and the small eight followed a year later, so Wolseley never again built cars so large.
