I believe they were available at Hay - then mini_kirsten arranged to get some for our Muster in Bne this year.. They are fantastic - came in Roundie/Clubman & Van

I made them... cast from an original roundie, and I put a blob of spak filla onto a roundie and carved the clubman front

roundies, travellers, clubmans and I'll have a moke at some point

soo you still cant even get molded models either then grr lol

there is a yellow scalextric one

There are a few different clubman models out there,
No Australian versions have ever been produced, which means they all have internal door hinges.

the newest ones, with great detail are from Spark:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Spark-1-43-Mini-Cludman-Estate-Green-S1508-/260675140461?pt=Diecast_Vehicles&hash=item3cb172fb6d#ht_538wt_1139


http://cgi.ebay.com.au/AUSTIN-MORRIS-MINI-1275-GT-1969-RED-1-43-SPARK-NEW-/200529154036?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_146&hash=item2eb0780ff4#ht_2275wt_1139

Yes, the UK 1275 GT, a different beast from the Aussie one

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Mini-Clubman-Yellow-1969-Spark-1-43-/350405389938?pt=Spielzeugautos&hash=item5195c9ee72#ht_1577wt_1139


These are usually available for around $60 to $80 posted from overseas, or retailers in Aus put about $100 on them.

Then you have the white metal kits or built from Crossway models in the UK, much more expensive, but very good including engine detail if chosen:

crossway on ebay:

Kit form:

There are various other plastic toys from the 70's, as well as White metal or pewter small scale versions (1/92 - 1/130) that are nearly impossible to find.

Good luck!

Another option is the clubman body made by Antonio Soares (he's in Europe and I've come across him on another forum) , he also makes a mini pickup body and both are to suit the Fujimi mini kit's (which are getting hard to find now and don't have engine detail ) . Bubbaclubby has a couple of the bodies he bought back from the UK mini trip from memory . I've been trying to get a hold of Antonio for a while as another friend is looking for some of his bodies but he's hiding ....
