    The production value of Evolves videos are amazing, the scenery, the camara angles, the sound etc. is top class. And a big thanks to Petrol Ped's insight on the GP3, he is definitely one of the most knowledgeable people when it comes to Mini.

    Amazing video, I have a mini GP3 number 2320, and it really gets uncontrollable in the city and on the road. This video was excellent for me to know what I should do about camber and suspension to make it more stable. Congratulations

    I can’t help but think if your money would be better spent on a FK2 Type R if you want something fast and front wheel drive. Honda have nailed front wheel drive on there latest cars.

    The only flaw of the Mini GP3 is that I could only afford to buy one of them... if I could afford it I would get two... why? I don't know this car is AWESOME! What I like is that the car is like a wild horse that needs to be tamed, I cannot just hop in it and drive fast right away like I could with my previous cars... I have to work at it and learn the car and I love that.

      Yes, our 6Sixty wheels are stock sizes in every way. Additional ride height would only add more clearance. We had no issues with the increased diameter.

    I’m now on my 3 mini gp3 and I still live that it’s this stiff. Haha but I’m from a younger generation so maybe that helps 🤣
    I drove my first one daily till 112.000km and my second one till 89.000km and now my 3 one is coming in this week 🚀.
    In my opinion really the best all round car ever made 💪🏻🚗💨

      @martijnjorritsma 6 місяців тому

      @@manion133the price must be different for the USA. Because we have a lot of tex that go on the cars in Holland.
      The most important thing to look at is the comfort pack that’s on the gp.
      When the car was produced they had one version with heated seats, climate control, navigation, front and back heated window.
      And the non comfort version did not have this. That was a more track focused version.
      So if your looking at buying one look for those options

      @EvolveAutomotive  3 роки тому +1

      BMW Mini have done a GP special edition for each generation. It's more an 'ultimate' Mini, something for the die hard fans of the brand than one I believe they are truly pitching as a product. You are correct the FK8 is a terrific offering, but it's a class above the Mini.
