Does anyone remember or know what British Leyland dealership sold my car originally?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

There is a group on Facebook called 'Old Garage Forecourts' who might even have a photo:-

Also the Mk1 Forum has a long running thread on 'Old Garages' mainly BMC or British Leyland, although some of the earlier posts have 'Photobucket' images which no longer display fully:-

My mini came from Stewart and Ardern in Acton, I ended up making my own sticker on photoshop and having them printed and then selling extra ones off to other owners.
From my research not all dealers used stickers in 60s/70s, and in fact Stewart and Ardern probably never did, but I think it looks good!
Thanks guys. This really helps me a lot! Sadly I'm not on Facebook myself so I'll ask a friend of mine to check for me if possible. Next step is finding a dealership sticker now haha

I'm pretty sure the car had one, as when I bought it I could see an outline of some sort of dealer sticker. But its so hard to tell all these years later. I'll definitely try that website though.
That picture is great to see as well! It certainly looked a big dealership in its day. Massive thanks guys.
