Hi Ian,
What does your ID plate look like?
Is the stamping similar to the one in the photo, or is it nice and uniform.
I am trying to establish if my plate is original.
The numbers on mine indicate November 1962.

A person has contacted me seeking any details about her Mini 850 that people may be able to provide. The info on the ID plate is : The British Motor Corporation (Australia) Pty Ltd Type: YMA 2S1 Car No: 102862 / 10831 Engine No: 8AM UH / 294649 Colour Sunburst cream 3 Can anyone provide an estimate (guesstimate?) of the date of production? And happy to pass on any other info that is provided. Thanks in advance |

I will let the gurus with the production lists answer that, in the meantime you could always have a look at the date stamped on the wiper motor. Providing it is the original it will give you the date of manufacture. It may be 6 mths out either way. |

"Sunburst Cream - 04873" wasn't around for too long from my google searches. Looks like 1962 was the only year it was avaliable? |

Sorry, IndigoBlueCooperS, it isn't my car. I've never seen the car or the plate (or photo's of either) so I can't provide any answers to your questions. Thanks again to those who have replied, I will let the owner know it appears she has a June 1962 model |

The numbers on mine indicate November 1962. Looks normal to me. I think they got the work experience kid to stamp them out. Tim |
