I'd guess this banded colour split is S3 (Sept 58) or later - earlier versions have simpler splits (roof and pillars in contrasting colour to everything below windowline). -- Last edit: 2010-10-25 22:05:05
dsl ◊ 2011-11-17 14:13	Some futher discussion on Minx estates at /vehicle.php?id=450764#Comment1053636 . From those points, I think this is 1960+ S3a or 1961+ S3b from chrome strip, but not 1962+ S3c as it does not have rounded bumper.
