How does it work with BOTB with regard to car options? Suppose I was gonna spec a car that cost 40k base price but I see that there'd be 15k of options I'd add to that. Then I win one of those cars through BOTB. Do I get a base 40k car delivered? Do I get to add extra options and pay the extra 15k for them or get them free? Something I've alwats wondered.
Hi 😊 BOTB pay for the car that’s listed on the website, most of which are the top of the range so will already come highly loaded with spec. If you wanted something specific then you’d have to pay the extra, which is why a lot of people also play for the £20k incase they want to add something.
That’s ok! I’m sure they don’t expect everyone to know how it all works straight away 😊 they have a how to play video and loads of questions answered on their site. Good luck if you give it a go!
it makes me laugh when people comment on the small back seat and the size of the boot. IT'S A MINI!! they never had large boots or rear seat area. Get Real people.
I have never had any problems with the back seats of mine (im 6'2 and all my friends are atleast 6') but the boot is VERY small. you can fit 1 small suitcase and that's about it.
Yeah if one wants to own a Mini Hatch practicality should be the last thing they concern themselves with. There's other larger Minis in the range more suited to their needs anyway. Although I personally consider the Hatch to be the most beautiful and refined. The Countryman just doesn't look as nice IMHO. Still anyone worried about practically should just get a bigger car in the first place.
My Mini’s being built as I speak, 3 door, manual 2 litre, sunroof, chilli red, black roof and bonnet stripes, comfort pack, black interior, leather seats, satnav, Apple play, cool black/silver alloys, £25000, delivery end of July CAN’T WAIT!!! Love these cars!
congrats on the car, I just bought 2019 Mini Cooper (regular one) and made an in depth review, I am so satisfied so sure yours will be aswesome with even more power :D
I’m an incredibly proud mini owner and I absolutely love my mini. Sticks to the ground, goes halfway around the world on a tank of fuel and looks gorgeous. Sorry five door, but the mini must be a 2/3 door or she doesn’t look like a mini. I wanted the union flag rear lights but my little Pepper didn’t have that option.
julie Wallis No it’s not. ‘One’ and ‘Cooper’ are different trims. A Mini Hatch is the actual model then you get it in different trims such as One, Cooper, Cooper S etc.
I've just watched this, and around 8:33 Christian says as standard all the minis get Revers parking sensors and cameras which isn't the case. Just picked ours up and love it very very good car
mini cooper has been my dream car since i was 12, im 18 now and the legal driving age in my country is 18, im learning to drive next week and hopefully ill buy a mini in a few months
When the handbrake is off the arm rest will lower as far as sitting on top of the brake lever,so gives a bit more room to change gear without blocking your hand and wrist as much and raise up as you lift the brake lever,i mange to drive with it down all the time .
In the last few years, the car industry has decimated the compact car class to a devastating degree. If you're a buyer like I am, and you want a compact car, your choices are now horribly limited. The Mini now being not just one of the best, but one of the only choices left. Perfect example of what I mean: VW's current generation "Compact" Jetta. Look at it. In terms of size, it's a VW Mid-size Passat masquerading as a Jetta. If I wanted more room in the boot or a backseat that could comfortably carry adults for hours at a time, I'd buy another Mid-size sedan. Bought one years ago, personally; it was a mistake. I don't care if the backseat is not suitable for two large adults. It'll rarely see anyone's backside. The boot is plenty big enough for a breakdown bag, and my work-bag; without the rear seats folded flat. Some folks genuinely desire a compact car that doesn't take up unnecessary space in their lives, is easy to park, and has a bit of performance under the hood.
Driving modes is a must in the Sport. As far as I’m aware it changes the exhaust note because the engine map changes giving you a few more sounds on overrun, it also changes throttle response, suspension, and tightens up the electronic power steering.
@@BOTBreviews, okay cool thank you. i have opted for the driving modes because i love the sound the car makes in sport mode. i have been reading that the minis no longer pop and burble on overrun but listening on here they seem to still do it.
Hard to believe that here in Australia, instead of being priced like a polo or fiesta, these minis are about the same price as the Civic type r or Golf R
I don’t get why everyone is saying that the new fuel gauge is better or even has more bars. It’s the same! 8 bars, just like before. The only difference is that the last one had 8 lights and the new one has 1 light in 8 sections. It’s the same!
This is a very true. After looking at pictures of both again, they are in fact the same in terms of lights, but the new gauge looks so much more pleasing on the eye!
I don't think ALL Minis get the sensors and camera. The Cooper classic hire car I have doesn't have them. But I do agree on the infotainment. It has taken me a while to get used to it. It can be a bit odd
I may have been a little eager with thinking they ALL come with sensors and camera!! I know they come with quite a few of the ‘packs’ you can spec. Yeah, I agree with the system, it’s great but it’s like playing a video game for the first time! Thanks for the comment 😊 - Christian
Long term review : 2018 Mini Copper Countryman All 4 S Problems prior to 60,000 miles: Door Latches: All four door latches failed (at various intervals) requiring the doors to be tied down to the headrest until repaired. The passenger door latched failed twice. Service manager was unable to offer an explanation as to the cause. Research mini and BMW door latch failures. Battery Replacement: No indication/warning light given that the battery was getting low… It just stopped functioning. Replacing the battery requires removing support bars and engine compartment panels. Somewhat time consuming compared to most cars. Engine Coolant: almost all of the engine coolant evaporated causing the car to overheat. No warning light that coolant was low. Car had been serviced by Mini of Bedford two weeks prior and had been consistently serviced by the dealership. Decals: Decals around the headlights bubbled and needed to be replaced. Tires: Run flat fair weather tires needed to be replaced to allow for inclement/snow conditions. Service/Technicians: There are very few shops that work on Mini Coopers and most are as expensive as the dealer. Overall: The Mini Copper is not a reliable vehicle and owning one in North America is costly unless you have the time to perform the repairs yourself.
What’s wrong with people, I got the Mini Cooper for my wife, she’s from the Philippines and she absolutely loves the Union Jack lights it’s the reason she wanted one, she calls it the jackass mini. Only people from the uk complain about it. Very strange. I’m not a mini person but totally fallen in love with it.
sounds not too bad, it saounds bloody awesome. prefer it to my abarth 595 i currently have. What planet are you seriously on. Roll on Oct when I take delivery of mine
Hows the reliability and fuel economy these days. 70k on my Fabia and nothing but routine maintenance and 60mpg. My last mini was fun but by 12000mile it leaked oil and did poor mpg - 39 mpg max. Was slower too. I'd have one if they worked and weren't being sold by tubers needing the review cars from the manufacturer.
I'm 6ft tall. I can sit and fit perfectly fine in the back. And that's with the front seat in my driving position. Not for a long trip but it's nothing like the pre-2014 models.
How about fuel consumption ? At the moment Im driving Mini Cooper 1,5 Litre petrol. I'm considering to buy 2,0 litres automatic Cooper S . How big is a difference ?
I did own a 2016 Countryman S It was dead reliable for 4 years I owned it. Only real issue I had was the overpriced maintenance for an economy hatch! The fuel was great for around city and from my turbo 1.6L petrol, i got up to 44 mpg highways. Great for long trips :) If you do buy a MINI, just be knowledgeable on how to maintain a vehicle in general. A lot of people who purchase one, don’t maintain their vehicles and let them go to trash! Hence why there are so many claims they are unreliable. I drove mine to 110,000 km No issues at all! But i just didn’t have a proper job at the time to afford the crazy maintenance costs.
Hi, I love your review. Is it okay if I use this on a website which specialises in Mini's. Happy to link it back to your TH-cam Channel and possibly your website too if you have one. Thanks.
@@BOTBreviews Nope, its a 7 speed DCT in all the F56 cars now, used to be an 8 speed torque converter in the JCW because it couldn't handle the torque, after the facelift it's all DCT, apart from the 2.0 diesel in the clubman/countryman
James Baggaley it all depends on the market. In North America, it’s still 6 speed for base and 8 at for s. backup camera is mandatory in us and Canada as well.
We believe that yes they can be changed out if you buy new, you might want to ask your Dealer if they would swap for the old style lights. If not place an ad to swap them on the Mini Forums 😊
Thank you. Great review. I currently have a 2003 cooper s. Love it and have had it sense new so 16 years and 215k on the clock. Thinking it may be time to maybe change it was thinking fiesta st but as the mini is nearly the same price and I do love mine maybe another 😁👍, or the works 😱❤️
I really enjoy driving them. Fun little cars that are easy to park, nippy and good driving position. Little more expensive than its rivals but feel you get a little more car for your money 😊 glad you enjoyed the review! Go check out BOTB as you could end up winning one!! bit.ly/BOTB-Win-A-Dream-Car
if you think the rear seat room is pants on a 2019 mini....try my 2004 1st generation bmw cooper! you need to be no taller than 60cm's to get in the back of that lol
How can you do a 12 minute review and not mention the ride quality??!! Mini's are known for having a harsh ride and it would useful to know how the model has progressed in that respect.
I have a 2019 JCW, the ride quality is still harsh, however very comfortable. I’m coming from a 2014 Roadster S and that was an insanely rough ride. In all honesty, I think they’ve improved significantly. Just know if you’re going to be hitting harsher roads, you might get tossed around a little
If you are a arm rest driver this is the very best car for you. If you want performance, keep fingers off this vehicle. Than the predessecor would be the right thing to you. John Cooper Works -R56 is the culture.
I have the 2019 Cooper S and my best return on last tank fill, shown under the speedo is 22.4 mpg. I f**** hate it, my wife loves it, says it’s great for “bombing “ about, whatever she is alluding to there I know not ha. She’s 72 yrs old and will never have an old farts car, even if she is ,like me. Your never too old for what you want, is my wife’s mantra
@@simeonselmon8318 I took it back to Cooper where I live who did all checks on it, found all a-ok. I think my wife drives it quite hard, and says that is what it was built for. Cannot argue there, cheers
I drove one of this whilst my mini went for a service it was a little quicker than my mini one d but my mini was just as much fun and much better on fuel the mini cooper s drank fuel about 30 gallon very poor my mini does 60 gallon best in the world
Massive thanks to BOTB! YOU could win a brand new car Including the mini here 👉 bit.ly/BOTB-Win-A-Dream-Car

That’s ok! I’m sure they don’t expect everyone to know how it all works straight away 😊 they have a how to play video and loads of questions answered on their site. Good luck if you give it a go!
Been playing for 5 years I might have a go for this mini cooper s looks good

Right on.
its a307 base
I have never had any problems with the back seats of mine (im 6'2 and all my friends are atleast 6') but the boot is VERY small. you can fit 1 small suitcase and that's about it.
there is a reason why it is called a Mini

Where is Android auto?
congrats on the car, I just bought 2019 Mini Cooper (regular one) and made an in depth review, I am so satisfied so sure yours will be aswesome with even more power :D
Best Of Luck Mate 🙂
I've Always Dreamt Of Owning One, Hope I Get To See That Dream Become A Reality 🙏
Omg your throwing money in the dustbin
I’m an incredibly proud mini owner and I absolutely love my mini. Sticks to the ground, goes halfway around the world on a tank of fuel and looks gorgeous. Sorry five door, but the mini must be a 2/3 door or she doesn’t look like a mini.
I wanted the union flag rear lights but my little Pepper didn’t have that option.
I assume you don't have this one because this one drinks fuiel
Simeon Selmon you’re correct, I have a Mini One. Which is just another name for a Mini Cooper.
Each to their own!
julie Wallis No it’s not. ‘One’ and ‘Cooper’ are different trims. A Mini Hatch is the actual model then you get it in different trims such as One, Cooper, Cooper S etc.
@@JulieWallis1963 A mini one is a mini one, a cooper is a cooper
If you are a family man or want to carry people ,go for the 5 door... if you’re the guy who want to go for the retro feel, go for the iconic 3 door
I totally agree! Hope you enjoyed the review! -Christian
My Mini is the 2018 Cooper S - Went for the 7 speed dual clutch auto as I've bad ankles. Timed 0-60 at 6.4s on launch control. Awesome little car.
I'm thinking of getting the same... I have a 2016 GLA45 now but want to change it. Power wont be the safe but I'm sure the mini will be fun
mate im gonna get an S with the 7 speed sport automatic as a 5 door
im soooo pumped for the switch (had a 120d till now)
The Mini Cooper is way too cool.
The arm rest is adjustable up and down. It pivots down and that puts it in a lower position. I had the car for a few weeks before I realized that.
It’s life changing 😂 thanks for watching Terry and hope you’re enjoying your mini!
You should do reviews much more often Christian. Really enjoy your honest down to earth reviews 👍🏽
I've just watched this, and around 8:33 Christian says as standard all the minis get Revers parking sensors and cameras which isn't the case. Just picked ours up and love it very very good car
As far as know only convertibles got reverse camera as standard because with the roof folded down it restricted the the rear window view?
mini cooper has been my dream car since i was 12, im 18 now and the legal driving age in my country is 18, im learning to drive next week and hopefully ill buy a mini in a few months
Cat In A Box YESSS A WONDERFUL FEELING hope u got ur driving license ❤️😏
JELW i got my license and i got my mini !!! ♡
Cat In A Box ooooooo that must’ve feels so nice I don’t know you, but iMm happy for you , enjoy drive safe ❤️❤️❤️
JELW thank you so much ♡
2 years later... did you do it?!
People who are too young to drive enter chat😂🤣
Yesp
When the handbrake is off the arm rest will lower as far as sitting on top of the brake lever,so gives a bit more room to change gear without blocking your hand and wrist as much and raise up as you lift the brake lever,i mange to drive with it down all the time .
It’s NOT an aluminium fuel cap. It’s chrome coloured plastic 😁
Thought it might be a weight saving tactic by Mini, but I guess not... 😉😂
You can tilt down the armrest.
What about suspension? feels confy or too hard?
Watching this to give me hope of winning🤟🏽love mini and played for all 4 this week. Mini cooper s , jcw , gp and the mulgari edition.
Wow... Looks like a great car to own... Thanks Christian for the awesome review :)
Tilt the arm rest down so you can comfortably shift and use the iDrive dial without it being in the way.
It tilts DOWN?! game changer!!
In The Headlights I know, riiiiggghht???!!! Lift the lever, push down and its business time.

mini fanatic just arrived.
I just got my 2019 5 door cooper s Sport. Its fucking banging!!
I hated the arm rest at the start, now I miss it when it's not there.
did you opt for the driving modes? does it change the exhaust tone?
Driving modes is a must in the Sport. As far as I’m aware it changes the exhaust note because the engine map changes giving you a few more sounds on overrun, it also changes throttle response, suspension, and tightens up the electronic power steering.
@@BOTBreviews, okay cool thank you. i have opted for the driving modes because i love the sound the car makes in sport mode.
i have been reading that the minis no longer pop and burble on overrun but listening on here they seem to still do it.
My model pops ans bangs at the end of higher revs
4:05 if you rev it out it sounds "enginey" ...what do you think is powering it?
Hard to believe that here in Australia, instead of being priced like a polo or fiesta, these minis are about the same price as the Civic type r or Golf R
Great review but what about power and the engine etc totally missed the driving part as you where driving it around longleat 😅
I've seen in other reviews that the pedals are slightly offset is that is true?
I don’t get why everyone is saying that the new fuel gauge is better or even has more bars. It’s the same! 8 bars, just like before. The only difference is that the last one had 8 lights and the new one has 1 light in 8 sections. It’s the same!
This is a very true. After looking at pictures of both again, they are in fact the same in terms of lights, but the new gauge looks so much more pleasing on the eye!
I thought the reverse camera only comes with comfort plus pack?
i thought so too

You still get the “maximum go-kart” message, but you need the mentioned mini modes. Toggle switch “sport” boom “maximum go-kart”!
Pretty sure on the 2019 version it doesn’t display it any more when you use the little toggle switch to put it into sport.
That bonnet vent, scoop, is just for show, in the F series, it doesn’t do anything, which is a bit naff.
Very nice good looking car, good if still warranty.
Hows the reliability and fuel economy these days. 70k on my Fabia and nothing but routine maintenance and 60mpg. My last mini was fun but by 12000mile it leaked oil and did poor mpg - 39 mpg max. Was slower too. I'd have one if they worked and weren't being sold by tubers needing the review cars from the manufacturer.
I had to check the date this vid was made, what was going on a year ago that would make the Union Jack offensive..Brexit?
Plan on buying a mini around the end of summer time what kind should i buy? Any recommendations? Will be an automatic 4 door.
Get the best you can afford! Cooper S is a solid buy 👍
@@BOTBreviews i was planning getting the S but didn't know which one to get, cuz they all look awesome.
Tempted by one of these but I want a car to keep for 3 or 4 years. Not sure if I’d get annoyed with the cramped-ness of it
I am wondering if the rear passengers space for people that around 5"3~5"5 is enough?
I'm 6ft tall. I can sit and fit perfectly fine in the back. And that's with the front seat in my driving position. Not for a long trip but it's nothing like the pre-2014 models.
I’ve just purchased an S,traded in my 2015 SD,so wish they did an SD in the 2019 car.I hope I don’t regret losing a lot of MPG
How have you found the MPG?
My steering is quite heavy?? I used to have a vw polo for ref… Is this normal
How about fuel consumption ? At the moment Im driving Mini Cooper 1,5 Litre petrol. I'm considering to buy 2,0 litres automatic Cooper S . How big is a difference ?
Is the cooper sport 1.5 turbo charged a JCWs.?
camera was not standard in mini cooper s in 2019
Thinking of buying a 2019 country , its's a hybrid for 34K , has 27k miles. Any thoughts?
Whats the best used mini cooper one can buy...?
I did own a 2016 Countryman S
It was dead reliable for 4 years I owned it. Only real issue I had was the overpriced maintenance for an economy hatch!
The fuel was great for around city and from my turbo 1.6L petrol, i got up to 44 mpg highways.
Great for long trips :)

No issues at all! But i just didn’t have a proper job at the time to afford the crazy maintenance costs.

Get the mini countrymen JCW auto , it's great, I just got one

Great review, hope to meet you one day, with keys to my new car lol.
can you get an s mini with the jcw interior
I love the way people try to get into a MINI. Like never got inside a 3 door car before.?
Odd question but what jacket is that?
Hi =) It's a 'Moncler Montgenevre' hope this helps! - Christian
In The Headlights peng jacket
Sadly reversing camera isn’t standard, just sensors. Pretty sure the auto is 8 speed, or at least it is in the JCW.
@@BOTBreviews Nope, its a 7 speed DCT in all the F56 cars now, used to be an 8 speed torque converter in the JCW because it couldn't handle the torque, after the facelift it's all DCT, apart from the 2.0 diesel in the clubman/countryman
James Baggaley it all depends on the market. In North America, it’s still 6 speed for base and 8 at for s. backup camera is mandatory in us and Canada as well.
Is there an option on the tail lights?

wow nice review bro
2019 minis have a problem with back brakes wearing out fast
Man, previous model look more beautiful special the front grill
Any record of reability yet?
Well it still works? 😂
It is a bit too big to be a Mini. It look’s a bit too tall instead of the low wide stance that suits this kind of car..... just an opinion 😎
Anything after the r53
Thank you. Great review. I currently have a 2003 cooper s. Love it and have had it sense new so 16 years and 215k on the clock. Thinking it may be time to maybe change it was thinking fiesta st but as the mini is nearly the same price and I do love mine maybe another 😁👍, or the works 😱❤️

What current situation,its our union flag.
Considering its a British heritage car,what flag should we have in the rear lights then?
You can also lower the armrest
Yeah someone else mentioned it. LIFE SAVER!! Haha 😊
Ok.... tried this... still totally in the way of the handbrake 😂
In The Headlights yeah when you drive you have to lower it, but when you pull up your handbrake you have to raise it
what colour is this car?
Moonwalk Grey 😊
Been in one just this month....
Union Jack taillights are not standard on all cooper S models.
In the UK they are 👍🏻
YES & LOVE ! Mini !
I love my mini
As a car the mini isn’t as good as it’s rivals butttt I’d still always go for a mini cos well it’s a mini
Bring back the R53's
Good presenter😊
If you are a arm rest driver this is the very best car for you. If you want performance, keep fingers off this vehicle.
Than the predessecor would be the right thing to you. John Cooper Works -R56 is the culture.
If you like repair bills, oil leaks and catastrophic engine failures the R56 is definitely the one.

@@simeonselmon8318 I took it back to Cooper where I live who did all checks on it, found all a-ok. I think my wife drives it quite hard, and says that is what it was built for. Cannot argue there, cheers
Reverse Camera is NOT Standard

90% of this video is seeing your face . Have a tour of the car at least
Hmmmmm. A very talking review.... A bit of dynamic driving, sounds and more video shots from outside maybe ....... 🤔
Don't buy a mini get a Kia venga much better car I had a mini it was not comfortable car to drive my Kia venga is just as quick and fun to drive
Get a life you freak
I drove one of this whilst my mini went for a service it was a little quicker than my mini one d but my mini was just as much fun and much better on fuel the mini cooper s drank fuel about 30 gallon very poor my mini does 60 gallon best in the world
I was tempted to buy one of these as but I was afraid people will think it’s feminine so I ended up getting a VW Golf instead.
I’d say you need to worry less about what others think and buy what you want to buy!
Awkward because?
What he is not telling you it cost a fortune to fill up on fuel I have a mini one d it's powerful enough and it's great on fuel
It’s really not bad Simeon. You’ve commented a few times but It’ll do around 40mpg.
@@BOTBreviews you are not doing 40 to the gallon more like 30
I drove it for a week and got 40 easily when driven sensibly.
@@simeonselmon8318 30mpg is nothing to sneeze at
What a rubbish review... I have a 5 door mini cooper S and of course the rear doors are much more convenient to get in the back!!!
But no electric seats 😤🤦🏻♂️
The ORIGINAL Mini Cooper S WAS truly cool............and quick!! This is a lardo, tubberguts, softy - and not even fast. Nah.
Old mini was quick? But this is faster, but slow? You make no sense
146mph is pretty quick is it not?
