I need some input from you guys.
I want to build a Model of the above car, now so far I have failed to find a nice Kit of said item, heck even a die-cast or similar might be nice.
From what i know it is a Mini Clubman with a 1275 engine, 10inch wheels and drum brakes all around released by Leyland.
Looking something like this:
Does anyone know of a good Kit(any material in 1/24) of a Mini Clubman that I can mod to represent this car.
I know I will have to do redo the grill to change the logo, not a problem got plenty of reference photos of the Wife’s car.
MMF,
I am not aware of any kits for the later Mini Clubman but there is a range from Revell in die cast which may be suitable.
Click on the link below for some details.

I found this via Google and typed in “Mini Clubman die cast”
By the way the Mini Clubman sgould have disc brakes at the front and drums on the rear.
Good luck,
Pete.
Thanks, for the link.
The specific Model was only released for the South African Market(AFAIK), and had a strange bleeding sequence for the 4 Drum Brakes.
My Wife used to own a Yellow one and I would like to surprise her with a Model that looks like her old Car for our Wedding anniversary.
BTW, managed to find a British Company that makes Kits of the Clubman Salon and the GT in 1/43 scale, but would prefer 1/24 as Ic an drop the engine from the Tamiya 1275S kit into it.
FYI, I can get a Cooper Clubman but that one has a different nose and dash-board.
