Fun Fact About the Mini Clubman (1970)
The Mini Clubman was introduced in 1970 as a more modern and luxurious version of the original Mini. Its most distinctive feature was the square front, a clear departure from the iconic rounded design of the classic Mini.
Under the hood, the Clubman often featured a 998 cc engine, giving it slightly more power than earlier Mini models. Despite its popularity, production of the Clubman ended in 1980, as the classic Mini designs regained favor.
