Description

1971 Mini Cooper Convertible – Rare RHD English Classic
Offered here is a seldom-seen 1971 Mini Cooper Convertible, finished in iconic British Racing Green over tan with a manual soft top. This right-hand-drive example was imported from England and came from a private collector in Manhattan. It remains in stock condition throughout, a rare find given how often these cars are modified or customized.
Powered by a 998cc inline-four engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, this Mini delivers the fun, engaging driving experience that made it a cultural icon of 1960s and '70s motoring. The car runs well, shifts cleanly, and offers the agile handling that defines the Mini experience.
The body shows its age and would benefit from some cosmetic work, particularly paint and light body touch-ups, but the structure remains sound and the car is perfectly drivable as-is. The interior presents well for its age, and the tan upholstery complements the British Racing Green paint beautifully.
This convertible variant is especially rare, even more so in right-hand drive and stock configuration. The true mileage is unknown, but it has clearly been preserved and enjoyed with care. Its factory drivetrain and character remain intact, making it an excellent choice for collectors, Mini enthusiasts, or anyone seeking an authentic British motoring experience.
Don't miss the chance to own one of the rarest and most charming Mini configurations—ready to enjoy or restore to perfection.
