The British manufacturer Wolseley was established in Birmingham in 1896 at the Wolseley Sheep Shearing Machine Company. That same year, General Manager Herbert Austin built the company's first three-wheeled horseless carriage. In 1900, a production version followed; it had belt and chain drive and was powered by a single horizontal water-cooled cylinder, driving the rear wheels. Austin remained with Wolseley in 1905.
By 1914, Wolseley led the United Kingdom in automobile production by building 3,000 cars.
This example is a Wolseley Ten Coupe that was built in 1921 but was not actually registered until 1923. It has a leather-covered top that features a landaulet section at the rear, which could be folded. The paint is original and the vehicle has not been operated in several years. The engine is a single overhead cam four-cylinder engine displacing 1260cc and offering 10 horsepower. There is a three-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel mechanical drum brakes.By Daniel Vaughan | Nov 2014
