My New 1979 Mini Clubman
today i drove down from dublin to cork to have a look at a green 1979 mini clubman,i went down in about 1hr.40mins isnt bad.then inspected car and was grand so after a test drive we shook a deal together,this car was a barn find lying in a shed with a few other cars hadnt been loved or started ina while,so i decided id take the chance and drive home and yes my big risk payed off met a load of people in cork city and on the motorway cheering and waving me on hahaha was very funny,its a 1098cc mini clubman all original,very little bits of rust nothing major,needs few bits,didnt notice i was driving home without and airfilter till i got home haha,i filled her up once 26 euro and got me all the way home with a bit of petrol left,i was doing between 47-56mph to be on the safe side,car didnt miss a beat,lovely car have her all taxed and insured and ready to go out all the time in her,hope to see you guys soon,cheers for looking

Good luck with the new car. I take it your dad will be driving you around for a good few years yet before you can get insurance on it. Give u plenty of time to have it 100%.
