Looks very odd to English eyes. Van type fuel filler, inserted windows in load area with rubber mounts and no opening elements suggest van body as a base, but no roof ventilator. Clubman style front but exposed door hinges. Is this an Australian/New Zealand variant of some kind? |

The mini in the picture is a Australia built Morris Mini Clubman Estate, door handles, rear windows, and front are all stock items on the Australia models, the modern wheels and wheel Arches aren't. These are normal only found in Australia and New Zealand, but at least one has made it to the USA as it appeared on Youtube at one stage with US plates.About 1971 in the Australian market all Minis (including the commercial derivatives) gained the Clubman front. A similar customised mini was used in Rhombus's music video for their song 'Onward'. The video is a follow on from their earlier 'Clav Dub' music video which also features a Mini, both pay homage to the New Zealand movie Goodbye Pork Pie -- Last edit: 2017-03-16 05:08:11 (dsl) |

Onscreen sounds very racy with a wasp in its exhaust. Slight glimpse sometimes of what looks like a Clubman dashboard. Late 70s Minis in NZ seem to be a fluctuating mix of locally made UK and Aus versions plus some full built Aus imports.
