The "Kestel" one was bit different, now when checked on PC and bigger screen. You might should have a closer look on the distance off the fitting wholes and shape and go for an alternative. Might be better to get something...
The "stem" is screwed to the door panel directly with plate screws. I could weld up the holes and drill anywhere but I would like to get that type of mirror because it is unique :)

Thank you, I will check MG shops
I found an old swiss (?) brochure that shows the same mirror on a Mini

Hello
I don't speak german, I hope english is not problem
I bought a 1971 Mini 850 which came from Switzerland. I am looking for a mirror because mine is broken. As far as I know these mirrors fitted by european dealers only.

I don't know, it could be the next step in the research.
BMC built the Authi factory because of the high import tariffs in Spain at that time. Lot's of the components manufactured in Spain.
-
Authis used electrics from manufacturer of Spain origin....means distributor, wiper motor, generator, switches, instruments and so on are not from Lucas or Smiths.
The car is 43 years old ( like me ) So, they could be replaced some parts during these years and it was easier to find english parts than spanish, I think.
Anyway, my spanish fellow spotted a "hidden" line in the Authi parts catalog. My VIN fits to this numbers.

Thanks for the pictures.
It is very interesting : on the spanish forum someone wrote that the clamp of the heating hose on the rocker cover is only found on Authis.
Your car shows more similarity to "my" car then an other Authi HS4 carb, double-circuit brake
-
Do you know the original specification of the car ? Any picture of inter of interior and engine bay ? Your VIN starts with XL2S1N ?In the licence if "my" Mini there is 40 kW of power. Authis has a hole behind the rear seats. One thing is confusing that it has a UK-like VIN plate.

Mein 77er Seneffe-Mini 1000 hatte exakt die gleichen Teile verbaut. ..."B" am Ende
Can you show me some picture of your car ?
-
But what's the reason of the "Z" at the end of the VIN ? UK built cars end with "A"

Hello
I found an Authi Mini for sale, now I'm research what model it is exactly. As I know some of them exported to Switzerland, so I found this forum
Please look at mí pictures, you'll see the VIN and engine number also.
