Description
1990 Rover Mini Cooper RSP Rover Special Production 1 of 1050 ever made. The RSP was created by John Cooper to reintroduce the Mini Cooper back into the Rover range of Minis. It was very successful and due to this the Mini Cooper was made for an additional 10 years. This mini is considered an important part of the classic mini Cooper story. They are now very rare to see and have become very collectable. Most have clocked up high mileages due to them now being 35 years old. This very nice, original example has covered just 18600 miles in 35 years! When these were made Rover sprayed the underside with yellow wax to protect the floors and rear subframe area. This ‘time warp’ example still has the factory yellow wax which is remarkable and shows the very sheltered life it has had. Due to this the original black paint on the subframe still has not seen the ‘light of day’ due to being covered in yellow wax. The overall condition is very good and I have also taken pictures of the front wheel arches areas. Normally these areas are covered in black under seal! I have the original book pack and a nice history file from new showing how well this mini has been cared for. The wider 165 Yokohama tyres add to the sporty look and give a rewarding feel in the corners. Free deliver to your door in my curtain sided van within 200 miles of Tiverton.
