Seller's Description
This genuine 1978 Leyland Mini 1275 LS is an excellent original car and one we’ve known here at our workshop for many years . This car is for sale on behalf of one of our long term clients. This car cannot fail to put a smile on your dial and comes in its original ‘Golden Nugget’. It’s largely original with excellent maintenance and recent work including carb rebuild, brakes, suspension and general service. This Mini has had much work done with us in recent years with around $10,000 worth of invoices to show for it. This Leyland Mini 1275 LS is a rare 'runout' version produced by Leyland in Australia and only around 800-900 were made with the most notable features included the 1275cc engine, larger front 8.4" disc brakes and 12 inch wheels. Our car has matching numbers and sits on 12 inch Minilites which look the part and are in excellent condition. (The car comes with its original wheels and steering wheel along with some other parts). The interior is original and as a Nugget Gold car it received oh so seventies chocolate brown cloth, with cream vinyl backing on the seat, and brown piping on the seam. The seventies theme extends to a vinyl roof which was an optional extra and sets the car off well. The body is in excellent condition throughout. The only blemish in the paint being a very small rust spot on the rear window. The car has been resprayed and this has been applied well and shows an excellent depth of colour and glossy clear coat. The car also has a vinyl roof which was an optional extra and sets the car off well. This is in perfect condition. It goes and handles as you would expect…like a Mini. These really are a lot of fun for the money and these rare LS cars are now gaining the recognition they deserve. This mini drives so well, had a lot spent on it and is a wonderful example.
