dsl ◊ 2014-01-17 17:45	@keef - this is correctly entered as a Maxi Mk2 (facelift grille, various mechanical changes, including new 1750 versions) compared to original Mk1 (1500 only) - eg /vehicle_21090-Austin-Maxi-ADO14-1970.html . However there was a final 1980 minor facelift with black bumpers and grille etc which was officially known as Maxi 2 (without Mark in title) - eg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Austin_Maxi_2_HL.jpg ..
