The black-backgrounds and chrome upper and lower bars is how the clubman GT is. Possible also the 1275LS. not exactly sure about clubman S. I think its all chrome (all horizontal bars) with black background |

Should I throw another option into the mix.....? What years got the Red Mini Grille Badge and which got the Blue one? Ive had one of each being 76 and 78 models but can't remember which was which. Cheers Dicko |

I don't think it really is standard. It is painted wrong and it has a 1275 badge added that no other 1275LS came with. |

The plot thickens.
