You certainly don't if it's the one in the picture! Austin-Rover is a codename for British Leyland, Austin themselves died years before your car was made.

It is, as the spec on the ebay website said it was, plus we took it to a garage and they did a check and said it was an Austin mini Mayfair, plus on the ebay listings it was under Austin.

From what i've seen, Dan isnt ever wrong try a dvla check on the plate and see what make it comes up with, after all ebayers may lie not sure about the garage though!

[THE ANORAK]

yes, and lots of people out there think they drive a mini racing flame checkmate

it's a common mistake made by people who are wrong

Oh he is you know, but not in this case..

I think anything after a G reg (think its 89) is when Austin had been bought by rover. Mines an Austin, and its an 87.

i think i drive a Austin

my log book says Austin mini and so does my insurance

mines a 1988

[THE ANORAK]

it makes no difference what the log book says. some peoples log book will say mini sky rose but you cant have both a sky and a rose, you have one or the other. the number of times i have seen an advert for a mini sky rose or a mini racing flame... oh it makes me want to bash my head against a wall

[minimanclive]

Just to really confuse matters. I've had Minis that have been down as Austin Morris with the DVLA.
