The green and white Clubman is Ian Sandwiths car, who owns and runs Green & White Mini Spares up here in the North East.


The "car" is still driven by Lance Foster in the Retro Rallycross Championship

I loaned the CCC magazine and never got it back, think it was made late 70s, batch of 3 perhaps.
