      =
      Year: 1996 (May)
      Based on: Mini Cooper
      Engine: 1,275 cc single point fuel injection. The engine number on the UK cars is prefixed with 12A2EJ66 and the Japanese cars were prefixed with 12A2EJ34. These engine prefixes were shared with the 1994 Monte Carlo LE and is one of the key identifiers of a genuine Cooper 35 LE.
      Exterior colour:
      Almond Green (HAK - BLVC1212) with Diamond White roof (NMN - BLVC655) UK and Japan
      Flame Red (RDV) with Diamond White roof (NMN - BLVC655) option for Japan only.

Flame Red cars had Black leather seats with embossed Cooper logos; red leather steering wheel and gear knob; "Anniversary" badge on steering wheel; wooden dash with cream-faced dials but with no clock, the Japanese cars have air conditioning vents where the clock would be.
      Equipment: UK cars - Gunmetal grey centred Minilite-style 4.5x12-inch alloy wheels with silver outer rims, two spotlights, two fog lamps. Japanese cars - silver alloy wheels and four fog type lamps instead of two spotlights & two foglamps of the UK model. All Japanese cars had factory fitted Air Conditioning, no alarm or immobiliser.
      Tyres: 14570R12 Pirelli Cinturato CN54
      Production: 200 for the UK market (5 of which received official John Cooper Garages S specification), 1501 were manufactured for Japan, the first (used in Rover's Japanese launch brochure) remained in the UK. Japanese cars featured air conditioning as standard, fixed rear quarterlights, and four fog style lamps (but still functioning as spot and fog). Rover Japan sources have said that no more than 10% of the Japanese cars were sold in Flame Red. Both the green and red Japanese models were available with the option of an automatic gearbox, something that was not available on the UK market cars.
      The five, John Cooper S specification Cooper 35 produced 86 hp. The conversion consisted of a replacement cylinder head, 1.5 roller rockers, Janspeed exhaust, K&N air filter element and modifications to the injection system. An oil cooler was also fitted.
      These cars had the roof resprayed in Old English White with matching painted on bonnet stripes which run over the scuttle panel as a tribute to the Cooper Car Co racing cars. Badging was updated with red enamelled Cooper inserts on the winged bonnet and boot badges, and the 1.3i badge on the boot lid was replaced by a Si badge. The original side graphics were retained.
      They also had a unique dashboard and matching door capping's in elm rather than the walnut which featured on the factory car, and three signed ivory auxiliary dials were added, clock, voltmeter and oil pressure, rather than just a clock on the standard car. Alloy door furniture was fitted, signed on some cars, but not all as the door furniture was redesigned around this time. A steering drop bracket was also standard on the Si. The factory steering wheel and gear knob was retained.
      Externally, in addition to the changes already highlighted, the Si gained clear indicator lenses, and polished metal Cooper wheel centre badges.
      Only four of the five John Cooper S specification Cooper 35's still exist.
      A number of cars were subsequently converted to S specification by John Cooper Garages, and the S pack cars can be distinguished from the original five cars by a plaque stating conversion number rather than car number.

      Tyres: 145/70R12 Pirelli Cinturato CN54
      Production: 1,000 for UK
      A similar folding sunroof that appeared on the British Open Classic had been an option in 1991 only in Japan, but the model was known as the 'Canvas Top.' Only 400 were made. Some unsold models were registered as 1992s, but this model was only officially sold in Japan in 1991. One difference between the British Open Classic and the Japanese Canvas Top model was the fact that the Japanese canvas top could be opened from the rear as well as the front. Opening from the rear was done manually by first releasing two latches on the inside rear of the top akin to those commonly found on convertible tops, and physically pushing the top forward. Opening from the front was accomplished via an electric motor just like in the British Open Classic.
      The British Open Classic was also made for other markets in larger numbers, these can be identified by either being left hand drive, fuel injected or no tweed inserts in the seats. UK spec Open Classics were all carburetor engines but the shell is single point injection as it has the bracket on the bulk head to the right of the carburetor. Unlike most limited editions the Open Classic has opening rear windows and a two pod dash, i.e. no rev counter. The export version has a three pod dash (this seems to vary, a German version and an Italian version are known, which have two pod dashes, so further research please). Also, there are export versions in existence, which are black, again, known are German and Italian cars. The Italian version also has beige cloth upholstery, without leather trimmings, also prepared for a radio (speakers, cables and antenna, but delivered without actual stereo unit).
