Here's some shots of a local Mk I S I promised earlier.

While this one is for sale I have not listed it as such as its not mine and i don't know any more than that. I can put anyone interested in touch with the vendor...









Cheers, Ian

And its older Brother....





Cheers, Ian

Very nice. I like that a lot

A lovely made six-wheeler in the background too.

So long

Such a tidy little S. Was that sort of carpet standard on Oz versions? While I like it, it looks more like something you would see in an Inno (or older Volkswagen)?

I'm pretty sure its the correct ridged "Axminster" style... Barry is pretty pedantic (smiley in case he's looking:).

I'll have a closer look next time we meet up..

Cheers, Ian

You can tell from the quality of that restoration! What a smart looking car that is, great value compared to our Mk1 S's. Lovely job.

that looks a very nice car ,excuse my ignorance but is that the correct engine colour for a oz mk1s.it looks like healey green engine paint that I am familiar with .
ok so just an excuse to put a picture of my other mk1

That is correct for all mk1-2 S in Aus

And the carpet is Westminster made from goat hair

That S is beautiful,I really like the Aus spec doors on these.

Ah, I wondered what the weird smell was in my own Aus "S"

Ok, Westminster makes much more sense. When I did a search for "Axminster" carpets the results where more suited for a library or drawing room than in a Mini.

Nice cars
