It's also a 998cc A+ engine which is a lot newer than the car.
Pictures of the inside dash area and around the car will help confirm what you have.

Engine is also a 998. CC - not a 1275 ( Small bore head) and can see angled rear breather that comes off the rear tappet covers. = 998 engine.

Definitely not a 1275GT. Looks like a MK3 Authi Mini Cooper that has UK Mini items added to it. Badges are UK 1275GT but that's all of the 1275GT you have.

If your profile picture is of your "GT", then it has the wrong front end...
There is also no such thing as a 1975 Cooper, or a Cooper 1275 GT.
We need pictures of the outside, interior, engine bay and rear bulkhead.

HELP!!! so I just purchased and had a lot of body and interior work don't to my classic mini. but I am currently stationed in Spain and the documentation is very confusing. I was told when I bought the car that it was a 1975 mini cooper markIII 1275 GT, but ive been looking into it and I'm not sure if it actually is a 1275 GT. how would I go about verifying the details on the car? thanks in advance for any help. oh and I can post pictures if it would help
