A week with the GP3...did I make a mistake ?!

[@mendeltomas]

I remember when you posted the video over a year ago about you cancelling your GP3 order. I commented on it then that I was sticking with my GP3 order. Mine was delivered to me at the end of July last year. Well, I sold my GP3 2 weeks ago. As much as I loved my GP3, I hated my GP3. The pros and cons of mine were exactly the same as what you stated in this video. In the end, I just really didn't enjoy driving it that much. I loved how it looked and I loved the power, but it was too much work to drive it hard. I'm glad that I owned it for 12 months as it's always good to experience things that you're a little apprehensive about. It's funny that you mentioned potentially owning an R53 as the 3rd MINI in your stable; I'm picking up a 2006 BRG R53 this coming Friday. I'm looking forward very much to driving it hard!

[@BrunoLinhares85]

Love the GP3. Its my daily car. These distinctive features make the car even more special, more demanding for the driver, and more fun to drive. For me. the fact that it is so nervous, scary, unpredictable, increases the adrenaline even more!

[@EvolveAutomotive]

Great video Pete! Glad you enjoyed the improvements we made on the GP3. Looking forward to getting you out in some of our other cars soon.

@@PetrolPed I find that new shape clubman so ugly over the old model,think the countryman is the best looking. Drove the GP3 thought it was on a different level, only people that can’t drive it complain about it. Definitely don’t need anything doing to it .

I bought a Clubman JCW, having owned a supercharged Cooper JCW, and a turbo Cooper S. the Clubman is easy my favourite but have a soft spot for the sound of the supercharger.

The best thing I ever did was move to a JCW Clubby. Long distance tourer, daily driver, go do the shopping, and it's still great fun on the B roads.

[@paulcurran9554]

Great video Pete. I love my GP3 and I get a buzz from it on B roads, yes it's a handful but I've had a belly full of cars managing my inputs rather that the other way round. On track it is an absolute demon and that's where it shines. BTW the GP3 doesn't have an electronic diff, it has a mechanical torque sensing (torsen) diff. You made the right decision for you, I made the right decision for me👍😉

[@Lockyoriginal1]

I too own one and have done so for nearly a year and having done a track day at Oulton Park in May this year l completely agree with you - it was amazing and a vast improvement (round the track at least) over my great BMW M140 which l tracked last year - and it was raining too which hardly made a difference - love it !

[@johns4384]

Knowing your style from watching your You Tube videos, it warmed my heart to hear you say you'd like a supercharged R53 Cooper S. I have an 05 with just a touch over 48000 miles. Jet Black, last year for that color option, I've had since day one. Garage kept, pristine. Nope, I'm probably never going to sell it. Cheers Pete.

[@paull4968]

I have had mine for a year now. 5300 miles. Ride can be bouncy and want to adjust that in the future. Maybe without run flats. But love the sheer speed in the 0 to 60 in no time flat. And hitting 100mph without even blinking!

[@jackleonard2088]

What’s better than a MINI GP3? A MINI GP3 filled with Petrol Pups! I for one am glad you got the Clubbie. It’s so unique and with the money you saved you were able to personalize it to your taste. Funny as we get older we start to listen to that little voice of reason a bit more and more. And nine times out of ten it’s right. Thanks for sharing this little beastie (GP) with us.

[@denso6708]

Another great video and happy that you made the right decision for you in the clubman, its a cracking car. I possibly have the highest mileage GP3 in the UK at 11000 miles. I have used it as my daily and although it demands respect, it still puts a big smile on my face. Torque steer is not so bad, but the tram lining under power on a B road always demands respect that’s for sure 👍

[@coltoncleveringa8004]

Was so excited for this video Sir Pete! It was fantastic! Loved the comparison to Charlie and also the story of how ruby was the start of the mini love! The go3 is awesome and all but Charlie for you was definitely the better choice! I’d have to say my favorite feature on the gp3 is the wing!! Should get one for Charlie lol 😆

[@ronald1968]

I drove 'down ' your favourite hillclimb Rd yesterday in my 68 mini when I left the breakfast meet at goodwood...... that is one awesome rd you have on your doorstep...... I almost turned around and drove it uphill just because it looked like fun!!

[@CarObsession]

I've been waiting to hear your thoughts on this car, especially after I was able to have a quick spin in one a few months ago. Completely agree with you; there's no doubt it's quick, but it deserves a manual (yes, an auto makes it faster and more efficient), the torque steer would grow tiring, as would the ride. Personally, I think you made the right choice Pete.

[@PetrolPed]

Thanks Bud 👍

[@SantaDeerhound]

I had an old 1987 Golf GTi 16V back in the 90s - it had no power steering and the ride was so hard that it was physically and mentally exhausting on a long motorway drive - the first time I ever started to not like driving because it was so tiring - I could see how people could fall asleep at the wheel. Lesson learnt re harsh suspension. A few years later I had a Mondeo ST200 and that suffered terribly from tramlining - such a horrible sensation of being out of control like driving a box van in a high side wind - even at low speeds sometimes. One of a couple of crap things about that Ford that made me get shot of it. For me the high performance aspects of a fast car are only enjoyed 5% of the time. So for the other 95% it has to be enjoyable and comfortable to drive. You chose wisely with the Clubman IMHO.

[@deltafoxtrot2]

Great review Pete, it is very easy to get star struck and make a car work for you in your head. When fantasy becomes reality it can be very costly and disappointing. You made a rational choice with your clubman. .

[@colinw1591]

No worries about the hayfever dude, I suffer too. Doc asked me years ago why I thought I suffered with it. I said I get scratchy eyes and a stuffed nose only in the summer, WHAT THE HELL ELSE WOULD YOU CALL IT? 😀 Anyway, I’ve loved the JCW, and it was partly your channel that influenced the decision as you may know. Then my daughter goes through a growth spurt, and no longer fits in the DB9. And having two cars around becomes a pain. And now we have a puppy coming, too. So I get the lifestyle angle. Our M340i fits the bill so much better. And the Mini, really quite suddenly, is no longer ideal.

[@gbilton1]

The GP3 is a stunning car, maybe the arches should have been an option. The GP3 certainly attracts attention.

Considering the wow reviews of the Toyota Yaris GR by literally all car magazine’s and the rather negative reviews (by quite a few) of the fabulous GP3 (my personal opinion having owned a GR & now own a GP3) it’s funny how the Mini gets round the Nurburgring 10 SECONDS FASTER than the Yaris and at 8.04 it actually matches an Audi RS6 with a minimum of 150 to 200 bhp more - in my eyes that makes it pretty special!!!

[@timmartin7468]

Great to hear your thoughts on the GP3. You made the right choice, Charlie Clubman is a fine car and a keeper. Another Mini for the garage? Yes please! Thanks for the great content as always and lovely to see the pooch and pup.

[@Orianne01]

For me, the GP3 is just a good car, I love to ride the Swiss Alpine passes with it, which I don't think is so good that the front axle often rumbles. I drove a JCW Roadster, painted the same as Ruby, and a JCW F56. I should have kept the roadster like you. I think you don't have to regret the cancellation of the GP3.

[@jeffabbott463]

[@KCnLex]

Great video! My quandary was between a used Audi Roadster TT/TTS or Mini JCW Roadster. Ended up with the 2015 JCW, with only 13,500 miles when purchased a few months ago. But do I think it is on par with the TT? Not really, the all wheel drive on the Audi really made it hug the road. The biggest factor was that Audi had discontinued the manual gearbox and in order to get one with a manual, I had to go back before 2012. To me "driving" for fun will always mean a manual transmission. I suspect when you are deciding between two cars, there will always be regrets. I am now making modifications to improve the handling of the JCW. Just changing the tires helped enormously. Did your channel have an influence? That goes without saying.

[@a1paulh911]

Fab video Ped!! 👍 The GP3 is a fantastic car, and Mini has consistently made a great range of cars for different types of customer - so nothing wrong with a Clubman if it suits you and your family. Anyway, having bought an R53 five years ago as a weekend fun car I'd deffo recommend... Nice ones are creeping up in value, but still not too expensive to buy. Kept mine looking stock but the performance and sound is superb after the specialist engine rebuild and custom s/s exhaust was fitted...

[@ginggur17]

Low profiles are a nightmare on the roads here around Lincolnshire. Just had all 4 ‘straightened’ on the Jaguar with it being on 20”. The 18” on the BMW feel awesome afterwards lol. I love fancy wheels, but ya just can’t really have them sensibly around here. The GP3 looks a right lil animal. I like a car which ya feel planted in, in all weather. 👍

So weird though the tiny delay..... Just noticed you have tip-tronic steering me too..... only used it once buy it was fun .... you have to pop round and have a drive!!!

As always nice and honest review, I don`t see any reason for buy a GP3, you can make similar power with an S or JCW with a tune and have it manual. The GR Yaris is the car that the GP3 should have been

[@paulhelden]

Never sell Ruby, much more special that any GP3

[@paultw3326]

Great Content Ped. You definitely made the correct choice. My local dealer had 3 stuck on its forecourt at one point, and stories of customers who,d bought them and were unhappy. I love Minis but I think its a poorly executed Car. The Clubman would be my choice too. Interesting to hear you talking about a classic, and an R53. I recently sold my 1961 Cooper S replica after 7 years of Grins and ownership. It sold for £15,500, way less than a genuine S, but just as much fun with its 1275 Engine, and almost exact spec/interior. I still own an R53 2005 S with only 9,000 Genuine miles & 1 former owner. I love it, and cannot forsee me selling it for years, though if I do I,ll give you first refusal ;)

[@markhutchin495]

Evening all, this reminds me of an R55 clubman I owned. It was on run flats and as soon as you applied the throttle it was a fight to keep it on the tarmac. Very good fun but does become tedious. As you say Pete a great car but to track focused without some expensive mods. 👍

[@petergalbraith3422]

It sounds as though you made the right decision; a GP3 would have been fun, but as a car to live with, not quite so well suited to your lifestyle as the Clubman. Regarding the torque steer, personally it's something I've got used to - my Mk2 Focus RS does it, though not to quite the same extent as the GP3, by the looks of things. I rather like it, it's a 'quirk' of the car. It's always at the back of your mind, but I also know to expect it, so it's never caused me any problems, and that's with 350+bhp, not 306!
