This 1275LS found found on Ausmini forums in 2014/2015 -  the owner has now contacted us advising of the car's progress, having undergone restoration work since it was initially spotted, including rust removal, new paint, 1293cc engine, refurbished 8.4" disc brakes, new headlining and burr-walnut dash. Restoration is hoped to be completed by September / October 2016.

This is one of fewer that 500 1275 LS's produced in Nugget Gold, a very rare Mini, and the last of the Australian Mini's. If you own an LS mini, please contact us so we can add it to the register. If you're interested in the 1275 LS, have a look at the identification guide drawn up here:
