Evening all,
I acquired a Feb 1970 built Clubman auto this Easter. It's a lovely original car with 41k on the clock, and with two family owners. I bought it from the grandson and granny purchased the car new from mid Wales. Lovely paperwork history too including the order form, dealer letters and the original service book. I've even got pictures of the damage caused when the car was hit by a milkfloat, how honest is that!!
The car still sits well on its hydro suspension and had kangol seatbelts fitted from new. It's been off the road for 10 years but I've got plans for a sympathetic restoration over the next year. The body shop are even going to match the faded glacier white paint when the fit and repair panels.
I'm hoping this forum may come in handy for auto box technical queries. I haven't started him up yet so I'm not sure what to expect.
All the best
Alex
