Not sure what to trust here. Black bumpers = City (and no tints so not 80+ super or Mayfair). Side indicators normally 85+ but older wheel trims and no arch extensions. Grille is Sept 80, so 81+ City my best guess. Can't read plate properly ... |

Reg: HTV 473V Vehicle make: AUSTIN MORRIS Date of first registration: March 1980 Year of manufacture: 1980 Cylinder capacity: 1275 cc Fuel type: PETROL Export marker: Yes Vehicle status: SORN Vehicle colour: RED Date of last V5C (logbook) issued: 19 November 2003 ![[Image: 20260622_091911.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/14329/26/20260622_091911.jpg) Interesting that it appears to have been exported. I can only imagine the plate was 'borrowed' from another Mini, or this one was painted beige and used as a proper, before being sold on and exported? |

If there's a 1980 Mini City in the mix, it would have been 850cc. Citys never reached the dizzy heights of 1275cc, so this one became a bodged mongrel. |
