It has Tbeen purchased by Bill Davis from Salt Lake City, Utah, who is a frenetic classic car collector, particularly British classic cars. The car was originally registered HXT 56, which is a Middlesex registration and has chassis number 312/11178 which makes it a post-car car. Bill was not sure what year the car was produced, or where is was originally registered; the car was not known to the Register and interestingly there is another Series III 12/48 on the List of Recorded Vehicles registered HXT 60 which was registered in February 1947. The engine is currently seized, so next jobs are to get it recommissioned, road legal and it then can be used for local trips and even perhaps displayed at the British Field Day (www.britishfieldday.com), which Bill organises each year. Calling all Wolseleys near the New Forest... Linda Hammerton [6394] live in the New Forest between Southampton and Bournemouth, and sadly we do not see many Wolseleys down this way. After talking to another I Wolseley owner I know, we are planning a get-together at the Burley Show in the New Forest on 3 August. It is a very good show with lots going on, and you can also go into the village for something to eat, or take a walk in the forest. Cars can arrive from 11.00am. We hope to see you – I will be there with my 1500 Mk I. You can just turn up, or call me on 01425 403573 (evenings). 9 Taxing MoT-exempt vehicles at Post Offices Bruce Henderson s you will no doubt be aware, I wonder if any Wolseley Register the Department for Transport members have had the same experience A(DfT) introduced an exemption when taxing at a Post Office? from MoT requirement for pre-1960 vehicles last November.

  • 57 Years Policing the UK Motorways
    57 Years Policing the UK Motorways On this page we take a look at the history of policing the UK motorway network since the opening of the Preston Bypass in 1958. There are a number of articles written by members of Police Car UK and we hope that you will find this page both informative and interesting! It is quite long, so make yourself a cup of tea and settle down to... 50th Anniversary of Policing the Motorway The Preston Bypass The M6 Experiment Motorway Memories and West Yorkshire Motorways The 50th Anniversary of Policing the Motorway In 2009 we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the opening of the first section of the M1 motorway. OK, before we start there is an argument that the first motorway was opened a year earlier in 1958 and was called the Preston by-pass. However, it wasn’t designated as a motorway (part of the M6) until several years later and so the other side of the coin will argue that the first ‘official’ motorway, the M1 was opened on 2nd November 1959. But the fact remains that from 1958/9 Britain’s motorway network expanded across the country and is now an integral part of our transport system and our everyday lives. And for obvious reasons it needs policing and so we find ourselves here in particular celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Policing the Motorway. Those Police officers who have worked on ‘the strip’ over the years will have an affinity towards it that is hard to describe. It can be an extremely dangerous place to work but it can also be an exhilarating one.
