What's wrong with the colour and trim? Looks correct trim for the year to my inexpert eyes!

Disappointed, I thought it was a Heinz.

Whoever put those wheels on it should have gone to spec savers.
I think that may be a cheap entry into mini* ownership - probably not been bodged and messed with like a mini either

Should be Leyland white with stripey deckchair trim for ‘78, wrong column stalks etc. Might even be a ringer, an 80 onwards car with an older V5 nailed on. Proceed with caution as there were no beige Minis 71-80.

There's quite a few minis coming up at ACA:

Admittedly that's could be even more risky. Also I'd really like a Webasto.

Theres a good chance I'll end up with something wrong tbh 🤷‍♂️

Presumably that white one should be this interior? Tbh I'd be tempted to replace the seats with ones with headrests and stash the original ones away. I find seats without headrests incredibly uncomfortable.
