Car looks fantastic with all the changes you've made. As with all your cars the style, little touches and quality of finish is spot on. Videos are great and show what a genuine and nice bloke you are mate. Made me want another Mini, I do miss the old Minitorque days
You also have the upgraded JCW Pro Gear Stick mate, normally the gear gator would go all the way to the top on a JCW, the Pro option, like they call your diffuser and front corner splitters, it has that taller chrome bar.
You have the same carbon style trim on the dash as my JCW has. Not seen many with that option. Mine also has the optional boost and oil pressure gauges. Some nice touches you've made.
your car looks great mate ! It just sad Mini didn't go as far as the r56 regarding aggressivity. The r56 jaw body kit was much more aggressive and less "round and big", you could get a real rear diffuser and even a leather and alcantara dashboard ! I wish the f56 had this features
Nice Video Pal, I have followed you on insta for a while, always liked your stuff, I had an R56 Cooper S with JCW kit, it was N14 so we know what that means lol, I got rid and got a Megane RS 265, I always look at Mini's though there is something about them, I plan to get another R56 in the future and cherish it lol. Keep up the vids they great.
recently got a new (to me) F56 CS, love the idea of smoothing and colour coding the rear hatch handle on mine. Is it easy to remove? Viewed you petrol cap video to do this part too!
Hi mate, when you took the door handle covers off to get sprayed do they just pop off? Like if I use a flathead screw driver? Cheers. Your car is beautiful I’m jealous of all the mods, and wait for this virus to be over so I can mod mine more!!
Hi thanks for watching, no you would damage your handles doing it that way as they are bolted on, check out my video on how to remove it. m.ua-cam.com/video/BuVBWfBJVHk/v-deo.html
6:38 - When you say it's a bit smaller, do you mean than the Cooper S as you mention afterwards, and not than the stock JCW cooler? Also, one issue with the Eventuri intake is that it can allow water to enter via the scoop. I know it has a hole in it to let any pooled water out, but have you had any engine issues with it? Finally, would be great if you could mention the cost of each mod and where you got it installed. Thanks man!
Hi the aftermarket intercoolers on the JCW are smaller than the Cooper S ones due to the radiator hose that comes out the front of the JCW rad to feed a 2nd rad. I had no issues with water and the eventuri intake
Hi it actually fully replaces any wing already fitted as the red part under the carbon wing is sort of the design. This video may help you understand ua-cam.com/video/cK_i7OSRFGc/v-deo.html
What does the tow bar number plate holder look like? I would like to get one for my JCW. Seen some on eBay but they’re squares and my number plate is rectangular. Is your square or a rectangle?
Thanks. Fitting video here, it didn’t need coding as it’s a stock steering wheel retrimmed so keeps the stock air bag etc ua-cam.com/video/Hu_6BNQwpSU/v-deo.html
Its certainly marmite compared to the previous generations, love it or hate it. Agreed on the GP3 although in a couple of years once people start modding them, im sure we will grow to like them
I disagree. Coming of not carring about Mini, I prefer the new mini look, to me it looks way more aggressive less "cute lil bubbly" car and more of a squared up retro style now
your car looks great mate ! It just sad Mini didn't go as far as the r56 regarding aggressivity. The r56 jaw body kit was much more aggressive and less "round and big", you could get a real rear diffuser and even a leather and alcantara dashboard ! I wish the f56 had this features

awesome upgrades! great video!

Viewed you petrol cap video to do this part too!
Yeah easy to remove, hardest part is getting the inner boot cover off without breaking it. But self explanatory once you get that off
Nice video, lovely mini
Thank you 🤗
Surprised the mirrors still on after all that slapping 😅
Thanks for watching
Paint the roof black, for a lower, even cleaner look 👍
Thanks for watching
could you please tell me how the car rides and handles compares to the factory jcw sport suspension, I have the same car, same color
I’m really pleased with it, I have it set up pretty stiff which is the way I like it, as they are adjustable you can make them softer

Hello Tweedbean. I saw your video on how to remove the chrome belt line for the R53. Can you please make the same video for F56? V/r
Will add it to my list of video to do
where did you get your tow hook number plate holder from?
Hi from Orranje Performance, it’s made by Burger Motorsports
6:38 - When you say it's a bit smaller, do you mean than the Cooper S as you mention afterwards, and not than the stock JCW cooler?
Also, one issue with the Eventuri intake is that it can allow water to enter via the scoop. I know it has a hole in it to let any pooled water out, but have you had any engine issues with it?

Does the wing fit a standard Mini Cooper s wing ?
Hi it actually fully replaces any wing already fitted as the red part under the carbon wing is sort of the design. This video may help you understand ua-cam.com/video/cK_i7OSRFGc/v-deo.html
How can we reach out to you if we have more detailed questions?
On here or my Instagram: Tweedbean
Much did it cost for the steering wheel ?
James around £300 and I provided the steering wheel to be trimmed
What does the tow bar number plate holder look like? I would like to get one for my JCW. Seen some on eBay but they’re squares and my number plate is rectangular. Is your square or a rectangle?
There may be some pics on here instagram.com/tweedbean/
Nice 😎👍🏼👀👀
Thanks for wathcing
Is it easy enough to get insurance with a Cat s mate ?
Had no issues with any of my categorised cars, they just value it less.
@@tweedbean thanks for letting me know 👍

Hi they are 18x8 et45 Oz Ultraleggeras in matt bronze
@@tweedbean Thanks

Thank you so much
How much was wheel ?
Thanks for watching, do you mean the alcantara steering wheel, if so it was around £300 plus I sent them the steering wheel to cover
tweedbean ive watched a fair few really informative. Yes the steering wheel ? Guessing it didn’t need coding in then.
Thanks. Fitting video here, it didn’t need coding as it’s a stock steering wheel retrimmed so keeps the stock air bag etc ua-cam.com/video/Hu_6BNQwpSU/v-deo.html
How is Emma doing?
Great thank you
What year is this car?
2016
Man how they butchered the gen 3. The gp3 looks awful.
Gen 1 or 2 all day long
