Our Mini, Boris, was made in November 1995, and from what i can gather was registered in the same month. In theory I suppose that would make him one of the last UK destined auto's mini's. When was your car made/registered? maybe we could have one of the earliest as well?

My Designer was registered 29years exactly after the mini was first launched: 26th August (in her case 1988) My mayfair( donor car) was originally registered on the 8th May 1987 as an auto dont know if it was originally an auto but had the transmission in it some time before being removed

I'd guess your Mayfair was originally an auto; conversion from manual is almost unheard of!
As for my Elf, there's a mystery I've never got to the bottom of.
The car is on a 1969 plate and that's the year of first registration given on the V5. However it is most definitely a 1967 car, having located dates on a number of orginal parts. The seats are '67 pattern too, which is how I was first alerted in a letter from a very knowledgable Swiss gentleman who had seen the pics on my website!

After much wrangling with VicRoads I established my Moke was made in 1971 and first registered in 1971. It was then deregistered in the late 80's, before the computer system came in! I re-registered it in 2006.

My Austin was registered in 1984, think it may be a city but I will have to check the log book.
Was registered for disabled use before I bought it.
