The vehicle will lose heat more quickly on a windy day, on the same principal that your radiator works better when the fan is blowing air through it.
The vehicle will never become colder than the actual air temperature, regardless of wind. But if there is wind it will cool faster. So if you park you car in a sheltered spot for 4 hours, the engine block would likely be warmer than the same car parked at the same temperature in a windy area, for the same 4 hours.
