Found this 1275 LS project on Gumtree Australia in May 2022, asking $6,000 ONO. Looks like a fairly original example with most bits there. One of the last Australian Minis, this one is an October 1978 built car. See the others on the register - approaching 100 of these great limited edition 1275 Minis. The seller noted "Has back windows in the back of car ready for install. Keys in ignition."...

Shannons has some great examples come through its auctions, and this upcoming auction ( link here) has a claimed super low-mileage example of the 1275 LS. Looks to be in fantastic original condition and claims to only show 1000km on the clock.. You have to remember, however, that the odometer on these cars does stop & reset at 100,000km, and by the look of the condition, it may have done that, but...

This 1275 LS was on gumtree in February 2020, asking $23,490 - not too bad considering many standard Leyland Minis are around this price (although, they's have to be fully restored to ask it).. Interestingly, the original 1275 unit has been replaced with a Cooper S 1275 unit, with twin carbs and finished in the proper green and all. The car otherwise looks wonderfully original, with the correct...

An excellent original example of the 1275 LS. Recently purchased in Adelaide. Car originally purchased in Ballarat VIC but then moved to Sydney NSW before being transported to South Australia Matching numbers car that comes with original paperwork and is generally untouched. In original condition apart from a number of tasteful modifications (stage 1 kit including air filter and exhaust, new...

Spotted this 1275 LS for sale on Gumtree Australia in QLD, asking $34,500. Looks like it was originally nugget gold in colour (per the engine bay shot), and has since been changed to hi-ho silver - although I note it has the correct red trim... So I'm really not sure what's going on! Anyway, another for the register which I assume I don't have yet.. Check out the original advertisement here.

This August complied 1978 LS was advertised on Gumtree Australia in January 2021, asking $28,000 AUD. Looks like a solid car, that has had a repaint and re-trim at some stage, so little to spend on the body work.. We have around 90 1275 LS cars on the register now (and even more in the offline register). Check out the others below. See the original gumtree advertisement here.

Another LS on the register - don't think we've spotted this one before. Advertised on facebook marketplace in December 2021, asking a crazy covid $30,000 AUD. Needs a faor bit of paint and trim work, but according to the seller it has very little rust. Not many left but they have been preserved in recent years and are increasingly desirable. Here's the link to the original advertisement: https:/...

It was only a matter of 5 years ago that you could get an LS project for under $10,000... Since then, prices have seen a steady rise for what was the last Australian built mini model launched, and aside from their tendancy to rust, arguably they were one of the finest of the minis built, with the 1275cc engine, 12 inch wheels (which looked more proportional partcicularly on the square front cars)...

Car in Unrestored Original Condition -- Registered every year No Plate DF 1275 Rebuilt Engine 100.000.

This LS was spotted on Gumtree in March 2021, asking $19,500. It looks to be in very original and complete condition, and even has its original carpet fitted (which is not that worn considering!). Shows 67,000 on the ODO,a nd there's every chance that's corret with a car of this age in this condition, with no knowledge of prior restoration. Unfortunately, we don't have VIN / chassis number for...

These days, most that come up for sale are those we've already got on the register, but this one seems to be a fresh aexample that's been in storage for a while (the seller claiming it has been sitting in storage for the past 7 years). The seller noted the car has a sunroof, 12inch cosmic alloy wheels (havent seen them before on a Mini) plus ap racing front disk brakes. The car still needs a full...

Advertised on Gumtree Australia in Feb 2020, asking $15,000. Only these two pics were in teh ad, so it's hard to know whether that's a good price. Another 1275 LSs details on the register..
