1980 Austin Morris Mini Clubman Estate, 1098cc. Registration number MFW 206V. Chassis number XC2W 2000687291. Engine number LBB10091 100778.
Sold with the V5C, there are no keys.
Introduced in October 1969, the Mini Clubman was penned by ex-Ford product planner and stylist Roy Haynes. Intended as a replacement for the Mini-derived Wolseley Hornet and Riley Elf, the newcomer boasted better frontal crash protection and improved under-bonnet access. Available until 1982, the Clubman Estate (like its Countryman forebear) blended the Mini's legendary handling and verve with a welcome dose of practicality. Sitting on a longer 7-ft 0-in wheelbase, it featured all-round independent suspension, four-wheel drum brakes, and rack and pinion steering. Powered by a 998cc or 1098cc four-cylinder A-series engine, the estate was only fractionally slower and less economical than its saloon sibling.
MFW is a 3 owner car, being owned by Sydney Charles from 1994 until our deceased vendor bought it in 1996. It has not been used for several years so will need recommissioning. There are no keys or carpets.
