Cultra Hillclimb - Special Tuning 4x4 Mini on display

Post by minitravellerman »

At the annual Cultra Hillclimb in the grounds of the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum just outside Belfast there was a 4 wheel drive display this year. Included in this was the Special Tuning 4 wheel drive Mini Clubman.

Got some good photos of it so will get them posted up this evening hopefully.

I've heard and read a lot about it but was great to see it in the tin.

Seen that car for the first time in 1989 at international mini meeting silverstone. Have some action photo's from this mini as it was used also on the dutch Avro's Rallycross. Will post them soon.

Also have a video of it's first race in Holland. But as it's from the Broadcaster Avro I'm not alowed to show it on youtube. But can make photo's from the vid ;) .
