Hi All,

Sorry if this has been answered already.

I’m currently planning my mini’s restoration starting at the end of the summer. My plan is to bring it back to how it was as new or as close as possible.

My question is, is there a way of finding out what way a mini was when it was new??

Thanks!!

This will let you know how to decode the details from your chassis plate.

Looking through the original BMC/BL/Rover Mini brochures in link below for your era of Mini is also a good starting point for original spec and interior/exterior photos, etc.
