Hey ImagoX no Worries, it's not my car nor am I thinking of buying, I'd never seen it before and was just curious. We get a lot of Japan import vehicles older than 15 years here in Canada but 99% of the euro ie BMW, ferrari, Alfa etc are LHD's, but all the Japanese likes Skylines and Toyota landcrusiers etc are RHD's

Here's one of the snapshots I took of the Amsterdam car. Sorry, I don't have more info.
on these. Based on what I've read in the Chris Reese book, there were a limited number of
Rover cabriolets and these are not them. I don't know what company made or makes these
conversions, but it is odd that the white one came from Japan, with the LHD. Maybe it was
converted from RHD, which is relatively simple. I like the idea of a classic mini convertible, but
based on what I've read, I wouldn't consider a conversion. Chopping the top off a paper-thin
tin can creates a huge loss in structural strength. If I were to gamble with one, I'd go with
factory cabrio.

The Clubman was sublime compared to the Austin Allegro
