1978 Leyland Mini 1275 LS 4 SP MANUAL 2D SEDAN
$11,200
Seller's Description
1275 LS
For sale is a genuine, unmolested RARE 1275 LS in Hi-Ho Silver with red interior in ORIGINAL condition.
I am the third owner from new.
Presented in its natural ‘patina’ state, this is as ‘genuine’ as they come. Matching vin/body/engine numbers, this is a rare find.
Purchased form an elderly gentleman in SA, NOTHING has been modified on this vehicle, no engine out or panels off. It does have rust, see photos and happy to take more if needed, also supplied with two replacement panels.
I was assured by the previous owner that the engine turns over and was running before being in storage, but on further inspection, the engine wont turn over for me. Get it running and enjoy an historical vehicle that has immense Australian history, combined with this amazing patina finish, looks awesome.
Please note, I had to add '000' at the end of the VIN to allow the ad so please delete
Sold unregistered and as is. Would welcome any inspection, and happy to assist with interstate transport at buyers expense.
Some background:
The final Australian Mini apart from the Moke, the 1275 LS was a highly specified version combining the larger engine with front disc brakes and 12-inch wheels, higher equipment levels, unique badging and pinstriping. Intended as a regular production model, the 1275 LS’s production life was severely curtailed and an estimated 800-900 were built between July 1978 and October 1978. The 1275 LS was available in either Hi-Ho Silver with red velour cloth seats (backed in black vinyl) or Nugget Gold with brown velour cloth (with cream vinyl backing), both normally seen with black side stripes and silver painted wheels. Other features include tinted window glass and rear window demister, an LS three-spoke Formula GT steering wheel and comprehensive instrumentation, plus a radio. Sourced fully built from the UK, the 1275cc engine was rated at 59 bhp and distinguished by silver rocker covers, while the front brakes (with booster) boasted larger 8.4-inch diameter discs than those found in the Cooper S. Billed as “Saving the best till last” in Leyland’s promotional material of the day, the 1275 LS has gone on to become one of the most collectible Australian Minis.
