I've got a pair of clubman bumpers. I can't get to them at the moment to photograph but they're both straight with no major marks or dings. I know these are to tough to get hold of but subject to pics what's are a ball park value for a decent clubman bumper?

I have been looking for replacement bumpers for my GT for a while, the price ranges are from £35 for a rear bumper with some imperfections/marks dents up to about £90 for one considered in good condition from a Mini Shop. Used Front bumpers are a bit more difficult to find and have been quoted £120 for a used in good condition or £250 for an original new from a Mini shop. New front bumpers from minispares are £154.28 and are copies and £207.60 for rear bumpers (currently out of stock).

Let me know what price you are looking for as I am still looking to purchase both front and rear bumpers

Thanks for the reply. Wow, these things aren't cheap. My mini is a 79 Roundnose but fitted with clubman bumpers. I have standard bumpers to fit and in two minds which way to go. If I move these on I'll send you a message. Thanks.

The '79 Mini Special had Clubman bumpers, maybe that's what you've got.

Mine is a basic HL. The seller said as far as he knew it was delivered with the bumpers. Could they have been a dealer fit option?

Ah OK, thanks. Had assumed just the special had the clubby bumpers with curly bumpers on the rest. T

I think the main features of the HL were the clubman bumpers,rear opening quarter windows and dipping rear view mirror

That was luxury in the 80's!

Ha! Don't forget the push button radio and winding windows on both sides! It's a luxury vehicle.
