This looks plain trim - minimal chrome, basic hubcaps, plain bumpers. Am unsure if plain 1100 had normal slatted grille or the (ex-Cooper) De Luxe barred grille as here, but nothing else suggests De Luxe. For reference - the 1100 was a Mk2 Mini in line with UK dates/phasing, but Aus did not adopt the UK body changes - bigger rear lights, grille shape, larger rear window etc.
