F56 Mini Cooper S JCW GP3 - The Daily Driver Review

After testing the Mini GP3 out on the track it's time to offer our thoughts on the car as a daily driver. Imran has been using it pretty much since we took collection as his commuter car, so how does Mini's track special fare in the everyday?

I cant wait for the Intake to be finished

[@johngittus7167]

Very informative, eagerly await the next episode

[@7JLjoshyboy2011]

Want an eventuri intake for my f56 they look amazing! Great video guys

[@typhoon3s943]

This was like a topgear review well done

[@richardtrow2751]

Great little pocket rocket, once you put your stamp on it it'll be even better 👍

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Absolutely. Its a riot to drive but want to make it it "ours"

[@stephenpeacock2627]

Great car and actually for a track spec car it’s relatively good value, especially when you compare it to the Renault Megane cupra r which is a silly price

[@johnamydaniel]

Morning Imran. Can you do a power run stock with the eventuri fitted? And then again after you tune? Would be interesting to see the results

[@ME-ck8yl]

How did you find the roads around Rhayader/elan valley in this little beast This morning ?? Thought I seen it parked in Rhayader this morning.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

It was awesome 👌 amazing on those twisty roads.

[@gray09r56]

can it really be a GP since its an auto trans? If it was double clutch trans and had to be shifted, in other words if you missed a shift it would just keep revving and go to the limiter. Being its an auto if yo miss a shift or dont shift quite accurately it shifts for you.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Even M Cars have ZF Auto trans these days so I guess so

[@scottab36]

Get the Carly for BMW Android App and turn off the active sound device (ASD). It's so much more pleasant to drive without all the extra fake noise.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Yeah will code it out when exhaust goes on

[@scottab36]

@@EvolveAutomotive It was the very first thing I coded out.

[@ErYien]

if you put the shifter in S but NOT in GP mode it doesnt hold the gears as long as with S + GP activated at the same time.

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Yes it still holds too long and is not very intuitive and in normal D is too slow. Needed some extra shift speed modes.

[@petera7983]

@@EvolveAutomotive Sprint Booster should change it

[@vhsarchives357]

minis are great but at high speed ive found them a little ropey!

[@cccc9911]

This car needs to be a manual....and any of that exhaust/engine sound coming thru speakers needs to be removed. From there, this car's perfect.

[@umairahmad4711]

Who’s from CEO cast ? 🙋🏽‍♂️

[@Scala598]

It sounds like we should just buy a normal jcw and modify it like your previous f56. Saves a ton of cash no doubt and achieves a better result....looks aside

[@EvolveAutomotive]

If you’re planning to fairly modify it then yes. However it will be interesting to see how much further the GP3 (or new JCW) could be taken

[@dimitriseleftheroudis5622]

I don't know what he means when he says the m3 has soft brakes and suspensions ! no clue what he's talking about

[@dimitriseleftheroudis5622]

suspension*

[@kevinmills5293]

So, you moan about other cars being too road focused and soft and now you are talking about taking a more track focused car and de tuning it for the road. FFS, what do you want???

[@EvolveAutomotive]

A car perfectly suited to my needs, which is why we modify cars. It’s great that BMW have committed and made a true track car, but for my uses I want it a little more road focused for driving trips.
