Notes

A remarkable find – this is the first we have ever seen with this original shiny reflective gold roof rack.

Issued between 1965-69, this popular Mini model has a sea-green finish, ‘wood panelling’, yellow interior, jewelled headlights, aerial, shiny gold roof-rack with two surf boards, and surfing figure.
