Well there was a four door version from regalia at the AGM made in the pewter finish, I am sure Onne will expand as he bought some :D

Only other four door Minors are from the '60s. The triang Spot-On 1-42 scale: Nicely detailed normally in pale blue, sometimes red and occaisionally in metallic green. Best to look for a tatty one and repaint to suit your car.
Then theres the matchbox one, about 1-76 scale which is nicely proportioned albeit tiny. Normally dark green, sometimes in med blue though if you find a beige one its worth lots apparently...
Both models turn up on ebay from time to time.
cheers

Hey! Don't be too harsh... It's well on the way! Another four or five years and the wheels will look almost as good! :wink:
Joking apart it might one day come true... We all must have our dreams. As soon as I've learned to weld I'll be doing some serious mendage!
Or I could just buy the toy, I suppose. :)

Springside Models made a 4 door saloon white metal kit. Not sure if they still exist. I had some but sold them. Though I kept one.
