I have just joined this forum, but I think most of you will recognise my Wolseley 18/85S. I have owned my Wolseley since 1984 and like to use it for traveleling to the UK and once in a while I tow my Little Austin Seven Special on the trailer. I'm overseas member no2 of Loci and a member of the Dutch Austin Morris Riley Wolseley Register (AMRWR.nl) and the Wolseley Owners club and forum.
The Wolseley gets not as much use as it would like, but that's because through the years I have been distracted by other cars too, like Jeeps, other Austins, Mg's, Morris Minor and another Wolseley, a Ten from 1939. Our "Rusty" collection also preserves Ian Ingram's old Mk1 Rally car. I thought of getting this one back on the road, but it will need extensive work to get it there and I'm afraid that might change the spirit of the car, so for now it's a "static". It also seems my interest veers towards older cars nowadays, but the Wolseley 18/85 is here to stay until the very end of my driving career and I always keep it in a driveable condition, so I can hop in and enjoy a drive when I feel like it. If you like you can see more on my Rusty daytrips weblog.
