Afraid not its a 1969/1970 1098cc minor if the reg is correct.

Yep, that is a series 5. All the Millions were series 3.

One main thing to check is the VIN number.
The millions started at '1000000' up to '1000349' (from memory - I may be out by 1)

However as already pointed out this one is too new. (from the reg number, but also the wiper configuration is the later 1000.)
