Wolseley 6/90
The Gerald Palmer-designed 6-cylinder Wolseleys which saw the dawn just after the Nuffield Organisation joined Austin to form the British Motor Corporation. With that merger this Wolseley gained the new 2639cc C-series engine in place of older MG/Wolseley engines. Leonard Lord saw this as a bastard child of the marriage and Gerald Palmer was out of favour and on his way to Vauxhall.
