1979 AUSTIN MORRIS MINI CLUBMAN AUTO

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at Silverstone Festival 2025 on Sunday the 24th of August, The Wing, Silverstone Circuit, NN12 8TN.

British Leyland's corporate strategy for the 1970s saw Austin and Morris dropped as marque names for the Mini and a new top of the range variant - the Mini Clubman - was introduced

The Clubman featured a revised bodyshell incorporating internal door hinges, an extended nose, wind-up windows and the instruments moved from the dashboard centre to a position ahead of the driver

The gleaming little Russet Brown Mini Clubman on offer here is not a professional restoration but an original car that has covered just 6,536 miles from new

First registered on 02/01/1979. Ten years current ownership and three former registered keepers

Even rarer - it's an automatic. Optioned from new with 1275 GT wheels and original Denovo run-flat tires (£36.77)

Original Wills & Ellis Ltd dealership stickers, number plates etc., original badges and labels throughout

Recent oil and filter change and new battery fitted. Wiper blades changed in the past (originals with the car)

Supplied with original paperwork, manuals, Supercover handbook, Denovo handbook and Retail Order Form (£2,980.38)
