1990 CLASSIC ROVER MINI COOPER RSP, UK-REGISTERED EXAMPLE SOLD

First unveiled in September 1990, the Mini Cooper RSP (Rover Special Products) was the special edition launch model for the Rover Cooper. The RSP was the first Cooper in 21 years and only 1650 cars were manufactured, of which 1050 were earmarked for the home market. The model proved an instant success and sold out even before cars began to appear in showrooms, which prompted Rover to put a Cooper in full-time production. The RSP featured Rover’s 1275cc A-series engine with 1. 5” SU carb, making it one of the last carburettor Minis released before the introduction of fuel injection. Each car was built to a high and instantly recognisable specification, to include twin-spotlights, RSP Minilite alloy wheels, body-coloured door mirrors and wheel arches, Tudor Webasto sunroof, half leather interior, red leather-bound steering wheel and a three-clock binnacle with green faced dials. RSP Minis became desirable classics very early on in their lives due to the limited production run and their significance to the return of the Mini Cooper.

This Rover Mini Cooper RSP was first sold by Cavendish Motors, London on 14th September 1990 and is presented in British Racing Green with White Diamond roof and body decals. The previous registered keeper owned the Mini for some 20 years and treated it to comprehensive restoration in 2016 at a cost of £5, 400. A further £3, 600 has been spent on the car in the past twelve months to ensure excellent all-round condition. Notably, this RSP Mini is fitted with a full set of period interior alloy fittings as purchased from John Cooper Garages in the early 1990s, comprising door handles, door pulls, window winders and a rare binnacle cover.

The Mini is superbly presented both inside and out and she starts, stops, drives and handles spot-on. The odometer currently displays a mileage of 82, 000 and the car is sold newly serviced and MoT’d until 14th July 2022 with no advisories. She also benefits from a recent new thermostat (with full coolant flush), fan belt, ignition coil, distributor cap, rotor arm, ball joins, bushes, front bump stops and front brake callipers, disks and pads and one-piece carpet. The Mini is supplied with a comprehensive history file enclosing original owners handbooks and a documented timeline of service, maintenance and ownership records.

This mini cooper RSP is without doubt one of the best remaining examples.
