would it be great if this site had a place where we could all post and try and find our first Minis.
I'm looking for my 1972 tan clubman.

For Victorians there is a web site (sorry I can't find it again in a hurry) run by the transport dept that for a fee you can trace the history of a rego number of a car. My first Mini in 1966 was a '64 850 rego JKK 766 I've been tempted a couple of times to find out what happened to it :wink: My second Mini was a 72 Clubman van (how I wish I still had that :cry: ) which I sold to my nephew for $400 who promptly blew up the motor 2 week later and sent the whole thing to the wreckers :(

Try the RTA/VIC Roads/QLD Transport?

They can trace VIN and plate numbers to your car if you still have that...
