    1956 Vauxhall Velox 2.2 Six Cylinder / VERY VERY NICE CAR / CLASSIC BEAUTY
    The Vauxhall Velox is a six-cylinder executive car which was produced by Vauxhall from 1948 to 1965. The Velox was a large family car, directly competing in the UK with the contemporary six-cylinder Ford Zephyr, and to a slightly lesser extent, with the A90, A95, and A110 Austin Westminster models.
    It was introduced by Vauxhall shortly before the London Motor Show in October 1948, as a successor to the Vauxhall Fourteen. Between 1948 and 1957 the Velox shared its body with the less-powerful four-cylinder Vauxhall Wyvern. From August 1954 through to October 1965, it shared its body with the more luxuriously equipped Vauxhall Cresta, a tradition that ended with the introduction of the new PC Vauxhalls. The Velox name was discontinued at that time in favour of the more upmarket Vauxhall Cresta name, while a new flagship model, the Vauxhall Viscount, was launched.
    The Velox and its Opel contemporaries are remembered for having mirrored North American styling trends much more closely than other European models of the time. That was particularly apparent following the 1957 introduction of the PA version of the Velox.

    I learned to drive in this model. 1956 Velox was our first 'modern' car.

      Thank you Sir. I have posted on our channel my 1957 E series station wagon if you want to watch it. Regards and thank you for your support

    The 56 got the rap around rear screen and wind down windows.
    We had a 54, which I think was better looking. However I do prefer the 55 dashboard

      Awesome thank you, we actually prefer the 57. Have a look at our 1957 E series station wagon on our channel.

    Pity about all the interruptions, it's rather irritating. Love the cars though.

    The grill on this 56 Velox was actually introduced on the 55 Velox.

      Thanks for that, we didn't actually know that.

    Amazing car. They really don't make interiors like they used to. Gotta love 'em tail lights :)

    The ridiculous idea of topping up BRAKE FLUID through the floor, was also true of STUDEBAKERS!

      I agree with you, the engineering failure. Not practical at all.

    Hardly beautiful but certainly iconic and well worth preserving.

      To 984 Francis. Well I'm afraid you're off my Christmas list, if you DON'T like the look of these! But I prefer them in SINGLE colours
