That one is a Morris 1100 badge and is much bigger than the Mini K badge.

Ah...good to know.  The seller is advertising it incorrectly then

Thanks Dr. Mini for pointing out the differences between the two.

Thanks Ian, but I would really like to find the one that originally came on the car.

I'd really like to get back to the "K" badging it started life with, but it sounds like I might have to rethink the bonnet. If I don't find one, I may do as Kevin did and just go without.

These Mini K (same as Mk2 Morris UK) badges suffer real bad from UV and sunlight. So decent S/H ones are like rocking horse droppings.
I needed one for mine, had no joy, so I gave up and debadged the bonnet (hood).

Not especially easy to find, but easier than the Austin one I needed, because of the number of Morris cars also built in Australia.

They are rare and hard to find, Chuck Heleker was looking for one i remember not sure if he ever found one he should chime in.

If in doubt, flat out. Colin Mc Rae MBE 1968-2007.
