Autocom Engineering's sole model, combining a dedicated spaceframe and molded fiberglass buggy body with extensive Mini mechanical components. Unlike the usual Volkswagen-based dune buggy it retained the Mini's transverse front-engine/front-wheel-drive package. No separate generations, engine classes or body variants are documented, and the British maker is unrelated to the Swedish Autocom vehicle-diagnostics business founded in 1991.
