Was it just the 850's that had the floor mounted starter or all minis?

i believe just the 850, as it was replaced with the centre key start well before production of the mini 1000, not sure about coopers though?

The early Austin super deluxe had a floor start but got a key start December 64. I believe standard 850 didn't but in Australia the ended production where as in the UK they kept going untill the early eighties and know idea when they changed.
