I agree completely Donn. But you would be amazed at the number of cars on eBay over here that clearly fit that description. The listings all read similar. They'll say something like:
"I just imported this 1970 Mk3 Mini updated to 1999 specs" and every picture of the car will show late model components and bodywork. Or, they'll be even less representative and say simply "Restored 1970 Mini" and you'll see an A+ engine, triple gauge cluster, side repeater lamps and so on. I've even seen licensed "regular" car dealerships listing Minis on eBay like that.
As my car is an honest-to-God, real '64, it really gets my dander up when I see things like that.
