Hi Guys,
Thanks for the reply(s).
I am disapointed if its not genuine, was planning the full resto as an investment/sunday car. Not sure if i wanna spend the hard earned cash if its not.
I found the link from where i bought it. I must admit, at that time (and now) i wasnt really in the know when it came to identifying the keys...cheers and thanks again.

Is everyone saying that this is an 1100 not a 1275? If so you cannot blame the buyer for being slightly disappointed that it was advertised on the forums as a complete, genuine and original LS with 1275, not only by the last owner, but also backed up and posted by poeee, yet it appears that this is not the case at all. I would have though such things were verified before it was put up for sale, and such claims were verified genuine....
I'm am not trying to get anyone's nose out of joint, but if both the last owner and poeee both claim its a genuine 1275 LS, one would think that its a valid, credible source of information.
Just my 2c.
I am of coarse referring to the below which is the text from the sale thread:

Pete at Bellarine Mini Centre is shifting house and needs to sell this 1275 LS.
It's complete (got all the 1275 LS stuff) and genuine. Long range tank, 8.4" discs, 12" rims including 12" spare (only 3 hubcaps), 1275, seats, 3 guage cluster, heated rear screen, etc all still there.
It is drivable. The engine runs, but is smokey. Gearbox is good.
Rust wise, it's pretty good. Pete recons there is some in the floor (he lifted the carpet up to show, but I couldn't see any thing but surface rust hehe).
Price is $3500ono. Contact me.
Economic transport to anywhere in Victoria if needed!!! The car should be up at the Mini Experience show at Mt Cooper in Bundoora on the 26th if not sold before then.
