I say "One" as I'm not 100% sure it is?

Just bought it, 2011, 80K, immaculate inside and out. 8 service stamps, timing chain at 67K. Looks enthusiast owned, decent quality tyres, nice "mini" mats and few personal tweaks. Runs and drives well. New pads all round but will need new discs soon.

But, no "one" badge. Manual aircon, no mutifunction wheel. Has alloys, electric mirrors. Dealer and insurance decsribed as 1.6 "mini one".

Is it?

All that aside any mini specific checks?

Put the registration number in on the below website and it should tell you the model that you have.

Ta, useful. Confirms its a "One" as everything else points to.

More importantly, reminds me I need to tax it!

You can also google "mini vin checker" put the last 7 digits of the vin in and it will tell you the full spec of the car.
