Looks very original too , here's a scan from the 1992 sales brochure (took 5 attempts to scan it , damn Rover being arty and printing brochures bigger than A4 means it's hard to line up  )
I know , it's a large image but it needed to be that size to be read , plus not many people come in here

Looks very nice indeed and looking at that brochure looks like its in original condition or near too. I've always liked the idea of a convertible mini. How water tight would they be??? I'm *thinking as* its factory it would be. Similarly as to factory fitted sunroof, less likely to leak compared to post factory fitment. Any ideas?? |

All I can find so far here is an initial run of 75 by coachwood company LAMM (first marketted as LAMM cabriolet's) to guage interest for an official Rover version in 1992 . |
