I have a real neat windbreaker with all sorts of decals, cooper etc and on the back a mini decal, like the badge about 5" x 9"

It was on there when l bought the jacket, but l am not a fan of British Leyland who were set on destroying the Brit car industry all by themselves

Yeah I think we got them over here until the late seventies... after this there was the Leyland 'pinwheel' logo on the badge, which my 1980 canadian spec car originally had.

Somerford lists it as being used 69 - 75...... although I'm sure the ones sent this side still had it in late 70's

I believe it came out originally on the MK III Mini's around 1970 ish.

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