hehe - officially Mini K was "Morris Mini Deluxe Mark 2 K", the 1100 badge must've been a marketing thing... but deluxes as we all know them were '64 to about April '69 |

They made 'em until the Leyland Clubman 1100 started in 1971. Same motor and box was used in Clubbie. Hydro too..

K was officially launched in march 69, and as sskgn rightly pointed out, it was a deluxe mark 2. |

I've only ever seen one reference to the K as a Deluxe MkII - in the book Spotlight on Mini Minor Downunder. Certainly the Mini K sales brochure does not refer to DELUXE at all. Note that even if a K was officially a Deluxe MkII, they do not have "MORRIS MINI DELUXE" on the back. They have "MORRIS MINI 1100" instead. 
EDIT: I thought K's were still being made briefly after the clubman was built. Last Ks were made in early 72, although I have seen one with 73 compliance! Maybe they sat around for a year before compliance plates were attached. |
