Yes, the last S's had Clubbie doors, Clubbie heater, and 2 speed wipers. My mate up the street has a restored one.. :wink:

<edit> built from Dec 1970 onwards.

I can vouch for Kev, I've heard of (but not seen) the Cooper S' that have the clubby fittings.

I was talking to my mechanic about it because my K has the clubman doors and he said that he's seen a similar (clubby doored) Mini K that came close to being an S. He said it had the Mini K ID plate in the engine bay but the railing in the boot mounting for the RHS tank. The owner just thought it was a plain ol' K but turned it outs probably one of a kind.

Not quite sure how many S's got Clubbie doors- 150? Wasn't many.
At the end, some S's had the Police pack too - 731? cam, twin HS4s, etc.

Yeah I know that the MK 2 1/2 Copper Coopers had Clubman heaters (leaves room for a CB or something) and also Clubman doors. And the seats sat lower to give the pigs room for their silly hats.....

It's a nice car but - I love the Mambas, look good in silver (for some reason I always see them in black - can't say I'm in love with black mags). Sure hope that isn't a monsta tacho though!

I think they used the Clubbie heater only 'coz they had stock.
My MK1-1/2 Copper Cooper had the stock S heater but of course back then they had no CB. I once outran one for 20 miles in my Fiat 124S.... :P :shock:

Nothin' wrong with black mags & polished rim... Contessas look good, Mambas better! :P

Not my cup of tea, but it does hide the brake dust. Don't get me started on contessas though, I much prefer superlites :)
