1974 Leyland MINI Clubman
This 1974 Leyland Mini Clubman is a beautifully restored example of one of Australia’s most distinctive small cars of the era, finished in its original and vibrant Yellow Devil paint. Having undergone a complete nut-and-bolt restoration in 2012 and travelled only 2,500 km since, it remains in exceptional condition. Always garaged under cloth, this Mini has been carefully preserved with no rust present, the seams and channels treated with Penetrol before reassembly.
The restoration was thorough, including Dynamat acoustic and heat insulation lining the shell and roof, making it a more refined and quieter driving experience compared to many Minis of the period. It rides on four-slot alloy mag wheels with Yokohama tyres, adding period-correct flair, and features tinted windows for comfort. Inside, you’ll find a CD stacker/player, cassette player, and radio, highlighting its usability, while a power cut-off switch adds practical security.
The Mini Clubman carries cultural significance as the "squared-off" successor to the original round-front Mini, introduced in 1969 to modernise Alec Issigonis’ iconic design. In Australia, the Clubman became a familiar sight throughout the 1970s, praised for its nimble handling, compact efficiency, and cheeky personality. Today, restored examples such as this are highly desirable, especially with matching numbers, original colour, and extensive documentation—including receipts, workshop manuals, and spare parts.
