Lot details

Registration No: GED 382V
Chassis No: XC2W2000673563
MOT: Exempt

  • Restored in c.2018 by the previous owner
  • Began life as an Estate before being converted into Van specification
  • 1275cc engine, Minilite-style wheels and wooden dashboard
  • Finished in the attractive colour combination of Gunmetal Grey with Black bumpers and wheels

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.

Manufactured new as a Clubman Estate, ‘GED 382V’ has since been converted into Van specification. Lavished with a full restoration in c.2018 while in the previous ownership, the Clubman is finished in the attractive colour combination of Gunmetal Grey with Black bumpers and wheels. The interior features cloth seats with a nicely finished wood dashboard and uprated stereo system, and the Mini has the 1275cc A-series engine. Entering into the current ownership shortly after the completion of the restoration, the vendor rates the Mini as having ‘very good’ engine, gearbox, bodywork, paintwork, and electrical equipment, and as having a ‘good’ interior.
