Wolseley 6/80
Alec Issigonis designed the Big Morris Minors (Oxford Series MO, and Morris Six Series MS) and then the lighted Wolseley badge was also given to these, and luxury fittings. The Wolseley 6/80 shared its new 2216cc 6-cylinder engine and most of its bodywork with the Morris Six MS.

Wolseley 6/80. Launched in 1948 at the same time as the smaller-engined Wolseley 4/50, both cars were thinly disguised versions of the Morris Oxford MO and the Morris Six MS. The Six never took off for Morris, but the Six Eighty did for Wolseley and it made them money. This car was popular with the Police.
