What is the difference? It concerns a Series II 2dr. I found out yesterday my car is a deluxe model..... can't find much deluxe though, no aircon, central locking, ABS ESP.....

And... joy of joys, a passenger sunvisor on Series IIs, I believe!
If you have a look at PoachedEgg - History then you'll find a timeline of major developments in the Minor's build history. I don't know how it compares with export models, but it shouldn't be too different.
Happy Minoring!

I think (off the top of my head! ) that deluxe means the car has a heater!!!
Have got Sat Nav, not the original though

Hi,
you also could get a radio fitted with the deluxe model and special order black as a colour (that was in 1966). Mine was a deluxe bought brand new by my parents. Along with the heater, overriders, front parcel shelf with ash trays and a red / cream interior.
Where would the rdaio been fiited then Wal?. I fiited mine on the lhs, under the dash, it is a period radio, so.....

Hi,
the radio was fitted on the drivers side underneath the glove box, above the front parcel shelf and it was a Motorola. It's not there any more - Sony has taken its place.
and the directions voice sits on the passenger seat right?
I believe deluxe also had the white parcel shelf, that was the only suggestion anyone had as to why some minors had white and the majority had black parcel shelves in the duotone years.
Its easy though, a satnav. Even when I am in Britain, I'll find my way around!
