History:
      After having looked at a few Estates. Saw this on e-bay decided with son and
      very good friend to travel south to Rotherham to have a look at the clubman.
      Thankfully after travelling a fair distance the car was in good condition. 
      Purchased and travelled home, Early June 2009 

Future plans:
      To keep and enjoy  many summers with, and store under SORN each winter.
      It has been interesting this first winter reading the large file of information I
      received with the car, old M.O.T’s and old repair invoices.

A group of Mini Clan members set off on a run to deliver the first of three cheques for the charities set to receive Thistle Run 2009 sponser money.
The first to receive the big clan cheque was 'Solas Care Unit' Southern General, Glasgow.


Escorted by the charity proposer Mr Dennis Buckle we presented the cheque to a very gracious ward staff.
