Pedro - 17 Jul 2005 15:30 GMT Hi Folks
Does anyone know if Clubman front chrome bumpers are still available please? If not new, what is the position re good quality S/H?
Moss list them in their catalogue but are shown as no longer stocked.
Mine was rusted through and has gone to meet its maker.
Any ideas please? North West UK
Thanks
Pedro
Steve68s - 18 Jul 2005 01:45 GMT not seen any, I dont think anyone re manufactures these at present, but they have just started making new clubman body shells again, so who knows what the future holds, try looking at auto jumbles etc, you will probably pay £££ for it though.

Try Mini and Metro spares in Warrington. www.mini-metro.co.uk they have thousands of spares for all types of Mini including Clubman's.

Just emailed M&M (first I've heard of them). Wait to see if they can help.
If anyone else has any ideas I'd be grateful.
Big help. Thanks

M&M's are a fantastic shop, you'd be amazed at the amount of stuff he has for all breeds of Mini's.
It's a bit awkward to find but once you know where it is you'll get there everytime or the other thing you could do is just ring 'em. Nice and friendly to talk to.

> Rochdale, but don't tell anybody... :-) Fitzy - 01 Aug 2005 10:02 GMT Hi All, Found a complete clubman in a breakers yard last week, the front end was complete and looks in good condition, the rear was covered so don't know what it was like, the grille, bumper and lights where all in good condition, the place was called Tangemans recovery, I think that's how it's spelt,, its between Lydiate and Haskayne just outside of Liverpool on the A5147 Fitzy

It's awsome and rises to 11000 feet.

If you look at a map of western Austria and draw a straight line between Innsbruck and Bergamo in northern Italy, the Stelvio is about halfway between these two places. At the top, you can continue down the other side and either enter Italy, or turn right after about 1/2 mile and run down a rather hairy track into Switzerland.

Mark it with a Placemark, you'll want to come back!

Pedro - 05 Aug 2005 17:59 GMT Wierd.
I ask about a clubman chrome front bumper and find myself hurtling down a series of Italian hairpin bends trying to emulate the three Italian Job Minis that sit on top of my monitor.
Strange yet interesting.
BTW I took a look at the scrap dealer near Moghull but it was closed and there was no sign of a clubby outside. Was it outside Fitzy or was the place open when you saw it?
Still need a chrome front bumper :-)
Cheers
Peter
Fitzy - 07 Aug 2005 23:55 GMT Hi Pedro, I have sent you a link with multimap, the clubby is inside the compound,, I asked about the interior,, so all the parts are for sale, Fitzy

If not new, what is the position re good quality S/H? No longer available new, so you're stuck with 2nd hand items in variable condition, more or less dented and more or less pitted. Check out eBay as they usually pop up quite regularly.
Fitzy - 06 Aug 2005 18:55 GMT Hi Pedro The clubman I mentioned is still there, and looking good, if you need a location ,, email me Fitzy
