1966 Wolseley Hornet MkII

United Kingdom • 10 Sept 2026 • Lot 1630

Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1966 Wolseley Hornet Mk2 boasts an incredibly low and documented 10,875 miles, a desirable upgraded 1380cc engine, and a 'Cooper S' gearbox, making it a potentially fast and unique classic. Its advisory-free MOT until 2027 and comprehensive history file add to its appeal, though a professional respray and a history of multiple owners indicate it's a well-maintained but not factory-original example.

Condition

7

The car has been professionally resprayed in 2022 and has had significant mechanical upgrades, including an enlarged engine and 'Cooper S' gearbox. The mileage is very low and well-documented, and it has an advisory-free MOT until July 2027. While the interior retains its original charm, it is described as having 'revitalised original leather and trim', and the car has had several owners over its life. These factors suggest a car that is in very good condition with some signs of wear and previous restoration, but with a strong mechanical and historical basis.

Description Genuine 10,875 miles Originally sold new in Jersey First UK registered in November 1995 Upgraded A+ 1300 engine now 1380cc 'Cooper S' gearbox Believed one of the fastest Hornet's available Advisory free MOT until July 2027 Subject to 6.5% + VAT Buyers fee HPI Clear A remarkable combination of rarity, provenance and documented history, this 1966 Wolseley Hornet Mk2 is far more than a charming 1960s British classic.

Delivered new in Jersey, carefully preserved for decades and now showing just 10,872 miles supported by an extensive history file, it represents an unusually compelling example of BMC’s sporting compact saloon.

The Hornet was introduced as Wolseley’s more luxurious interpretation of the Mini platform, combining compact dimensions with traditional British styling cues and a more refined interior.

Today, surviving examples are increasingly sought after, particularly cars with genuine provenance, originality and a story to tell.

This example has all three.
