Background
The Wolseley 15/50 was an updated version of the Wolseley 4/44 automobile. The main change was the engine; the 4/44 used a pre BMC Morris XPA unit and after the MG TF stopped production it was the only car still fitted with it. To rationalise production the 15/50 was launched with the BMC B-series engine fitted. Much of the design was shared with the MG Magnette, although some of the panels of the MG Magnette ZA/ZB are not interchangeable with those of the Wolseley 15/50, as stated in Practical Classics.
