DESCRIPTION

Just 8,760 miles from new... A highly original 1977 Mini Clubman.

Originally registered on 31 Oct. 1977, this Russet Brown Mini was sold by Mann Egerton Ltd, Bishops Stortford on 14 Oct 1977 to Miss S Bradford. The car was resold on 28 April 1978 to her friend Miss D R Godfrey, Seven Kings, Ilford because Miss Bradford had received a company car. Garaged in 1985 by Miss Godfrey when she stopped driving, she is said to have put the car away and never used it again. At that time, the car had covered a mere 8,703 miles. She taxed it for 1986, but the tax disc was never used and is still with the car documents in the original square perforated paper.

The car was taken out for the first time and put back on the road this year with a new MoT certificate issued in August 2015, with no advisories.

Safety related running gear (brake parts, headlights, tyres etc) we are told have been replaced. The fuel had solidified in the tank and a new petrol tank has been purchased and fitted. Almost all of these new parts are said to be original pattern from Moss Europe, the classic car specialists.

With the car are all MoTs from when it was on the road, service records, original BL handbook, the original keys and fob and the 1986 tax disc in its perforated paper. Essentially original with even its period working BL Motorola radio, this 38 years old / 8,760 miles Mini is said to drive wonderfully.
