3 months and 6000 miles with the 306hp JCW Clubman could prove expensive !

  • Thanks to Mini UK I have been running the 306hp JCW Clubman as my daily for the past 3 months. I have done over 6000miles and learned much about the fastest Mini ever made. It is safe to say I have been impressed. In fact so impressed I now really want to buy one for myself !

    Love my 2020 JCW Clubman. Here in the states we have something called Mini Takes The States every two years. This year it's in July. My bucket list is to do this with my son and this car!!It was a gift from him to me.This car makes me smile every day. After my cancer treatments I walk out and I STILL smile. FYI the sunroof makes a difference too. Thanks and drive safe.

    Wow by the end of the year you could, maybe, possibly, have a remote chance, of being on the cusp of having 3 yes THREE Mini cars! Thats proper love lol. I'm of those that just doesn't quite get them, but I've never driven one either.
    Love your honesty though Pete and love your channel. Your obviously doing well, but your within the realms of relatable and your thoughts and reviews reflect this.
    Oh and just have to say your end/credit music sounds just like Emirates onboard music. Every time I here it, it takes me back to my honeymoon which was via Business class too. Never have the money to do it again, but glad I did!

    Another great video Pete. Fully get what you say about mini’s putting a smile on you’re face, we have a mini one as a family pool car and there is always a rush for the keys. You are right about the spot lights too, JCW’s should have them as standard.

    I purchased a 2015 R60 that was in "like new" condition last June. It made me smile from the getgo. The extra 100+ horsepower of the JCW would definitely get me in trouble with the law which up to the present I have been able to avoid.

    I am 75 yoa and have owned more cars than I can recollect, more recently and in the last two years I had an extremely fast Cooper S, I wanted to trade it for a high end Countryman JCW and was told it would be three months delivery which was eventually extended by months and on into more than a year, I purchased a nice BMW instead, however, the need for the Mini never left me and I pick up my new Countryman JCW on Monday 9th January. I also had an X5 M Competition (Ultimate Pack) which I ran for a year before trading it in for a more moderate 3ltr X5. I have driven a JCW some time ago and simply loved it and I am looking forward to Monday when I will pick up my new one.

    Started nursing school in a distant city. I couldn't commute in my 5 series BMW and had to sell it, but could not find anything economical that provided the same ride and performance. Tried the Mini Clubman which essentially is a BMW and immediately fell in love with it. Thought that upon graduation I would get the 440 BMW convertible which I've always wanted but think that I prefer the JCW Mini Clubman! I LOVE MY LIL CAR! Parking, driving, unique style, I absolutely love it! Your review sealed the deal and I can't wait to purchase! Great review. P.S. My husband dings my rims lol !!!

    I sold my R56 last year and miss it every single day so I know where you are coming from with regards to Mini ownership. I think the Culbman has got better with age and the JCW looks the ‘nuts’. Hopefully I’ll once again be a Mini owner in the next couple of years and there’s a very good chance it’ll be this model 🤞. Loved this vlog 👌

Hey, MINI, I know you don't need any help selling Countryman's (I can tell that by the fact that you can't get a test drive anywhere in the UK) so do us Gen 2 JCW Paceman/ Countryman owners a favour and let Petrol Ped do the testing for us......

    You're obviously as hooked on the Clubman as I am Pete. Mine does have the larger info screen, panoramic sun roof and the wireless charger in the armrest. The charger works great but anything larger than my Samsung S8 won't fit which could be an issue if you gotta have the latest phone! Doesn't bother me, to be honest. I am also in agreement with another comment re a Blazing Red (not the Chili one) Clubman with black roof coupled with the panoramic sunroof and black wheels, that describes my older Cooper version and it looked awesome!! Now all I need to do is save up for the JCW all4 version.......

    Mr Petrol Ped, I'm a little older than you, and far wiser. Having owned as my first car a proper 1966 Cooper S, I find the new BMW Mini neither 'Mini' or 'fun.' You simply might as well buy a better mid-size car than this over stylized, plasticy, repair prone interloper. The genuine essence of the original Mini has been lost with size and weight.

    Congratulations done Pete. You get my vote for "Ham Actor of the Year 2020." 🏆 And it's only February too... :-))...
    You're absolutely right about spotlights for the front of ANY Mini too. They're almost a prerequisite.
    And if you are getting a new Mini, make sure that you have a black roof if you're having a panoramic sunroof. Sunroofs don't show up that much with black roofs as they do with the other colours. So my choice would be a red Clubman, black wheels and with a black roof. And spotlights too :-))...
    Oh! By the way. The first "hot hatch" I can ever recall having 150bhp was the 1988 Vauxhall Astra GTE 16V. And that had 154bhp driving just the front wheels. Car reviewers then, said it was going to be far too powerful to handle. How times change!!
    However, it's been fun watching the JCW Clubman. So, so sad to see her go... :-((...
    PS - I forgot this. By the end of the year, new Mini's should be getting LCD screens to replace the mechanical dials :-))... So I'm led to believe!!

    I always try to keep my cars as clean as possible, however I do find it interesting to see how a car gets dirty. By that I mean how the mud is thrown up onto the bodywork, how the aerodynamics affect the flow of grubby water and how the vacuums that all cars have to a degree affect how the dirty water settles on the car.

    I knew you'd be hooked on the Clubman lol, Minis give more smiles per miles than any other car I've driven. My 2005 R53 supercharged baby is expensive to run it's getting old, like me but I wouldn't swap it for the world, whenever I'm grumpy which is a lot, if I jump in the car within seconds I'm smiling again. It's a pocket rocket that I can drive sensibly or rag the nuts off, and it always delivers. Take care mate 👍👍👍👍👍🏁

    Oh crud, Petrol Ped. It's bad enough that I named my F56, Penelope and drive Suz nuts 24x7 with constant peeks out the window or cutsy comment about how much I love her, whether it's smoked Union Flag Tailights or red, and all to my misses' eye roll. Now, yep, you guessed it, I have to have a Mini Clubman JCW, especially living up here in New Hampshire with those twisty roads and bad winters. Yep, the finance calculators are chattering like a team of tabulating accountants. And it's your fault:-)

      Petrol Ped Absolutely, and lovin’ these videos especially during current times. Mods have been fun, and this one was a fab car review. Appreciate the comment on the run flat tires too. I have wondered about those on my F56. It has Pirellis. Should I change them to the ones you mention in the Clubman vid when they wear out...which may not be long with the cornering I’m doing on the back roads😁

    Took delivery of a Clubman JCW two months / 3,000 miles ago and we're also really impressed. Still don't see many around. Not kerbed the 19" alloys yet (fingers crossed..!) but the ride on uneven and poorly surfaced road is very harsh. (Hey, but who wants a soft suspension with 306ps?) On a smooth road it's great fun and love the noise from the exhaust. Fantastic build quality, great styling, plenty of oomph and a nice to have something a little different to other hot hatches.... totally agree with your comments in the video - we love it!
