@prd270892 only the Cooper S models came with twin tanks, prior to Jan 1966 even Cooper S models came with a single tank however the second tank was a factory option on the S. After Jan 1966 twin tanks were fitted as standard on the Cooper S's

What about the twin tanks, I always thought early coopers had twin tanks.

In Canada in 1970, brand new, this car would cost $3000.00

nice mate my mum had one of these in Australia, lighter colour with a white roof, push button start single tank with disc brakes it was a monster to a young bloke like me. I had a 5 litre V8 Ford and this this would get away from me around the streets lol

@jessehirsty Thats Really not cheap at all hah, i picked up a 1964 Mini Cooper for $500 In Australia, engine still runs and its got a spare work 998 engine :)

That is an amazing car. Minis are so cheap in the UK. My 1962 was $2000 when I bought it with no paint, engine was shot, no gear box, no seats and electrics where also not working. And after 3 years of restoration I have an awesome car that I love to drive worth about $11,000. But I wouldn't sell it in a million years.
