Not mine, but I found this on eBay when snooping about.

 

According to Somerfordmini site the first clubman estate was 1969 which would be 'H' reg. 

 

This is on a 'G' plate which makes it 1968 registered & could make it very early, maybe pre-production ??

 

It needs some work as can be seen but could be a worthwhile project & might be interesting to dig into it's history.

 

Currently at £500 with no bids & a little under 2 days to run.

 

"RX" reg number as well  !!!!

 

This has to be worth buying ?

It has the wrong shell. Later shell. Its probably a mini estate/countryman/van logbook on a late 70s/early 80s shell. Wrong engine bay crossmember, gutters, gearchange tunnel and so forth.

In short, a ringer!

Ah, I'll get my coat.

As above more than likely reshelled from a roundnose countryman. Probably done ages ago.

That must have lived down here in south Devon for a while. The stickers in the windows are for my uncles garage and the sun strip is for one of the local Mini clubs. They're probably mid 90s vintage.

Nothing to be ashamed of! but as it stands it woudnt really be worth doing unless you converted all the wrong bits to right bits.
