Should I have kept the Mini JCW? 😪 Give the video a thumbs up if so!

[@kevinjarvis9184]

Mg performance mini go up to 280-290kmh! So yes

[@placidrenegade]

TGE TV yip

[@pad3357]

Yes should have kept it so much character in such a little parcel, hope you end up with a GP3, or at least review one or a challenge210

[@callummongan9722]

TGE TV great video as always

[@ScottPC]

Nope.. silly lamb

[@daniel1975ish]

That coat though. Fricking sleeves look like 60`s granny blinds which have been slightly pulled up.

[@Jack-cu7rl]

its alright, with the new GTI MK7.5 you get a free complimentary S3 whenever you feel like driving one, simply use the gti key to unlock it and off you go.

[@TGE]

+Jack 😂😂😂

[@bena9251]

Best used car for 15k next? Be good for a lot of us that buy around that mark.

[@emullen93]

1500 miles on my 2018 jcw and I literally tear up thinking about the day I'll get one day get rid of it. Best car I've ever owned. It's a riot

[@paulbarnard308]

Ethan just get yourself a new one when it’s in the sea mate

[@TheHazzaaHD]

You still liking your car, I pick mine up next week - words cannot describe haha! :D

[@fredso]

6:10 love how casually you say "I'm gonna clickbait that as well" haha

[@josephzakhem5038]

Tour of your house!!!!!!!!

[@OCFProductions]

The sound of the mini f56 JCW is amazing but even better with the jcw performance kit

[@SlopedOtter]

6,000 miles in 2 years, my runaround has done 10x that in the same time haha

[@Kingdonnerkebab]

Usual TGE style, love it 👍

[@danson4605]

Used to work for the company that built and painted the front and rear bumper. These were a pain in the ass to get right.

[@frankvaiden3891]

Picked up a 2017 JCW Mini Cooper S and drove it for the first time. Two weeks later I am still driving the JCW everywhere I can find a fun road. Don't know when I will decide to park it and get out. Don't really see a need to. I have owned every sport car out there and I just am nuts with the Mini.

[@maxencedeshaies]

2:46 is pure gold :D

[@Sash_Window]

You are smashing it mate! Good luck to you Brother.

[@TGE]

+Sash Window thank you!

[@yesssirrskiii5925]

[@nervsouly]

Beard?

[@AlexOliver555]

I think you should have kept the mini. The golf gti is cool though. I have a mini 210 works which is kinda the challenge 210 but not a special edition and comes with that stupid loud exhaust you mentioned and i absolutely love it. I can't help but smile and laugh when I have that exhaust on. Got a few plans for my car though cause they are very tuneable.

[@bencreed2755]

Can you do a video on why you lease your daily? and maybe a little bit more finance talk that would help people buying. Thanks :)

[@97JGK]

Ben Creed because normal cars depreciate a lot over a year or 2 from new and supercars don't basically

[@northweezie1]

Joe Key yes they do.

[@violater7026]

God this is a year later A lease is cheaper they pay maintenance you always stay in a newer model based on ur lease Buy a car 7 years to pay off its worthless after that you hate it 2 years in Lol

[@ThisIsBarcode]

Which do you prefer as a daily dude...the JCW or GTi? I’ve got a faulty S3 which I’m presently trying to get a refund on and having owned a Polo GTi before, I’m leading towards the JCW.

[@AndrisRs]

Where did you get that jacket Tom?

[@StopFrameFILMS]

Whats the spec on your beard? Cheers

[@CommandoAcr]

Do a video on your Solebox ultraboosts.

[@the-boring-car-guy]

How’s your gear change mate, clutch helps

[@michaelvanna8982]

Then lease another jcw with sunroof, jcw tip and exhaust..retain that Pop and Burble...yeah😊

[@oldben1800]

imagine they made these with like 30 more horse and 4 wheel drive...they would skirt

[@Bryan-fg3ey]

How tall are you Tom? Cos the mini seems to have decent headroom for you and your snap back.

[@matiaspetrali45]

7:59 hahhahahahh, made me laugh my gosling

[@rasmuspersson8225]

Tom you should look into alpha industries! Very nice bomber jackets!

[@josh_2174]

Ping those Ferrari centre caps my way, brother. Could do with them for my corsa

[@cranstonmichael]

*IN THE SEA*

[@Repp271]

Wasn't that Benny Anderssons jacket from ABBA... 🤣🕺🏼🕺🏼

[@somethingspecial6111]

[@missemmawalsh]

But good video beard....

[@callummongan9722]

[@seanpichay6553]

Hows the reliability

[@Bogging_Along]

1.6 was an R56 new one is F56 :)

[@corinneroberts49]

Sorry to say That your trunk size is way off. I have a 2018 jcw with the seats down I can fit a $500 shopping trip at Costco wich Is a warehouse discount shopping place where you buy groceries in bulk. I have three people on my family, I hardly ever use the backseat so they are down most of the time the ride is not bumpy and green mode but I love feeling the road I have owned a Cadillac Which is like riding around on a boat I do Not like floating on the road. I enjoy my Mini it is my most favorite car out of all 10 cars I’ve had. I did get the upgrade on the speaker system and I did get upgrades on my seats for suede and leather. I also got the tire upgrade for the Ranot like floating on the road. I enjoy my mini it is my most favorite car out of all 10 cars I’ve had. I did get the upgrade on the speaker system and I did get upgrades on my seats for suede and leather. I also got the tire upgrade for the rims. The absolute best car I’ve ever owned I baby yet I love it I even named it. It’s funny I have had people try to beat me off the line haven’t had a car yet that has done it. There was a McLaren that tried but I didn’t even give it a go. If you’re looking for a car they can handle any turn you throw at it if you’re looking for a car that you can have fun in and enjoy and you’re a tiny person like 4 foot 11 like me then this car would be perfect for you. But the guys absolutely right don’t buy it because it has absolutely no trunk space and less you put the seats down but he absolutely had no brain to do that, I mean yeah you wouldn’t have any trunk space unless you put the seats down but what person with a brain would think of that

[@bradhellyer7429]

What lease company?

[@simeonselmon8318]

Can anyone tell me if mini one d is any good

[@Emily-zp4vm]

God damn that car is good looking 😅 my dream car right there:)

[@888mf4]

A good send off for the Mini. Much prefer the new daily though.

[@adolflenin4973]

When i want your opinion, i will buy a brain.

[@krunalpatel4829]

Is the dsg in minis reliable ?

[@clubsportf56s48]

Yes they are. Running 300hp. Car is from 2016. No problems

[@JadenWhite]

what year is this jcw?

[@debbiepeter112]

2015

[@ikybaiiki]

I feel like because he leased it he didn't care about the car at all that's why it wasn't mentioned until now lol

[@PetrolHeadsLdn]

Not that top secret and also location for most of my vids. ;)

[@danchalklin3271]

Very random! Why don't you get a dog? and if so, what one would you get 🤔

I actually hate the dsg gearbox. My mom has a dsg vw auto, and every time I downshift there is a ridiculous amount of judder.

[@ranewridha120]

[@TGE]

+Ranew Ridha Sigh. Yes.

[@astrovenus8345]

You're killing me, on so many levels. I enjoyed the video though. I'm a miniac. You're mostly killing me on not spec'ing this JCW more liberally! What!? Forewent the Harmon kardon speakers??? Seriously??? Please draw the line somewhere! 😂🤟🏻😡🔊🤓🤑🤯🤤 Atleast treat yourself to some nice jams...

[@500bht]

The r53 is the best mini bmw made .all the other models from 2006 are awfull. Can't beat a well tuned r53 for smile 's

[@ortontom]

Auto mini really ..?

[@MannyOfficial]

Beard approved

[@benjaminchaplin5878]

Does this guy even like cars or does he just like being a hipster? I feel like he could be reviewing an apple, or a sewing machine, and it wouldn't matter to him as long as he could show off his comedy coat and oversized chav-watch.

[@TGE]

+Benjamin Chaplin Oh pipe down Benjamin

[@alexheath7828]

Don't worry bro rents all these cars claims to own em 😳

Great video! Love the vlog yet informative style. Only suggestion: dial-in the sound mixing… the talking is very quiet in comparison to the exhaust clips and music… Keep it up!
