This is just what Shaun needs. A prestige Mini grille and sold in Norfolk.
Unfortunately the scan comes from AUTOCAR magazine of 23rd September 1971 !

The penny has dropped.
Status was a company founded by ex-Lotus engineer Brian Luff.
Check our page 174 to 177 of Rob Golding's "Mini" book, which has another pic of 979 DJJ.
I do believe Brian Luff is still alive and resident in Norfolk, maybe he has some kits left !
