Only 400 original British Open Classics were produced, but there’s a significant number crafted for other markets, distinguishable by features like fuel injection, left-hand drive, or the absence of tweed on the seats. The UK version of the Open Classic boasts carburetor engines, opening rear windows, and a two-pod dash.
In 1991, Japan introduced the Canvas Top model, similar to the British Open Classic with its sunroof. However, the Japanese version stands apart, as its sunroof can open from both the front and the rear. This particular Mini British Open is one of those rare 400 originals, and its excellent condition makes it a perfect addition to any collector’s lineup.
More than just a well-driving gem, this Mini is a true collector’s piece that deserves to be snatched up quickly. Don’t miss your chance to own this extraordinary find!
