Hi all! :D
A friend of mine suggested I post a question here regarding a badge I have that is apparently for a Mini K.
It belonged to an elderly gentleman who had it for many years, and it appears to be new, all but a few minor scuffs.
I've attached a couple of pictures, hopefully they work.
Any help clarifying what this is actually for would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers

Looks like a Mini K badge to me.
Just missing its chrome trim around the edge.

Thanks all! It'd be good for it to go somewhere it's needed.... no point it sitting here looking pretty.
I've already had a few pm's with offers.... not sure which way to go..... might list it on eBay to keep it neutral...... and put a link here ...... I don't want to create any rifts or start playing people off against each other.... hope that makes sense!

I think it's already on "the platinum list". :)

Off the top of my head - AL136 2-screw tailight lens, SU fuel pump breather bung, MK II S badge, original S extractors, Mark 1 S brake booster, plastic S heater, original 850 instrument binnacle, Tasmania tiger, .................................

nah, despite what some people think, that K badge isn't the same as any other mini, others from UK that are similar have a gold ring, and some other details.

even if he didn't start it at $200, it'd be likely to get there
