  There was a dealer fit accessory one for a while in the accessories brochure which looked a bit like that, but I seem to remember it was essentially a stick on battery clock much like the ones shown above and wasn't wired in.  Late models with a flat dash fitted had optional analogue clocks, and all MPis and the 1100 Special had them too.  ERA Turbos had little digital clocks which were different from these.  Other than that I really don't think clocks came off the production line

The one I have was wired into the loom and when I came to remove the clock it didn't look like someone tampered with the loom to fit it. Looked factory to me and I was always told they were an optional extra.

 

 

 

Digital Clock used to be available brand new from Mini Spares, discontinued about 5 years ago.

I have one of these, got it from a guy on the forum for £10.
Direct fit and really easy to wire up. Get one! :D

 

 

I've been watching a few on ebay recently to get an idea of their price and they've been going for about £50 - £60, you got a bargain there. Seem pretty rare too it seems nowadays.

I've had loads of bargains off the forum. I don't really understand why they are so expensive it's a really simple piece of kit. I'm sure they only cost penny's to make!
