Correct floor from M Machine

Hi,

I contacted M Machine to order a new floor for my 65' Austin. As you can see on the pictures, someone already tried to work on the car so it was not complete.

When asking for the floor, they asked me the following: "Long gear stick or magic? Or in front of seat" I'm new to Minis and this is my first job, so still learning. Could someone help me understand how to identify mine or what's the difference?

Attached you can find some pictures for help.

Thanks!
Alex.

From the images you have the "long" gearstickfloor. This was the original design of gearstick.

The remote shift was introduced with the first mini cooper and is a whole before the cross member in the floor.

Looks like the standard Magic Wand (long gearstick protruding from where the floor meets the bulkhead).

Think that's the wrong catalogue. You need the panels catalogue but that brings up error 404.

Link corrected, but don't trust the prices, it's an old copy.
