Wolseley Hornet Special Club

Celebrating 75 Years – Touring, Trialling, Racing & Maintaining Since 1950
Marking their first-ever appearance at the NEC, the Wolseley Hornet Special Club celebrates 75 years of preserving and enjoying these remarkable cars. The stand will showcase four different expressions of coachbuilding artistry — all sharing the same Wolseley Hornet underpinnings.
On display:
-
1935 Seber-bodied, supercharged Wolseley Hornet Special race car
-
1934 Eustace Watkins Daytona 4-seater Wolseley Hornet Special
-
1932 Swallow-bodied Hornet Sports
-
1935 Whittingham & Mitchell Wolseley Hornet Special Drophead
Each car demonstrates how coachbuilders of the 1930s created unique interpretations of the same chassis, from elegant tourers to agile racers — proof that the Wolseley Hornet offered the best of both worlds: individual coachwork with common engineering excellence.
The stand’s design will reflect this theme, celebrating the diversity, craftsmanship and competition spirit that have defined the Wolseley Hornet Special for nearly a century.
