    Hey there,
    as you probably know, i'm currently restoring a mini clubman estate. I'm planning to fit a flip front to it but can't really decide what to do with it. My choices are:
    Get a clubman flip front and restore it back to a clubman estate.
    Or Fit a roundnose front, It will have to stay as a roundnose estate for a while but then when i get the funds it will become a mini van by panelling in the rear windows.

    just wondering what you guys thought. Clubman estate? or Mini van? Smile

    Hey at the end of the day its personal choice, Some say leave original others change it to suit them, thats the fun of owning a Mini in the first place. MAKE IT YOUR OWN BUD :-) Good Luck which ever way you go
