I Had a 2016 JCW with adaptive dampers it rode really well on 18's. Once again a case of specifying adaptives on a BMW transfers the car. Fantastic fun car. made me smile every time I drove it.
Just keep being you and your channel will grow. Always love the vids. I'm also holding you half responsible for now sitting here for a 18 week wait to get my new M140!
Wow of to Oz 👌💪👍 it's about time one the UK tubers went out there to show us there car seen. Great to hear your going to be working with Petrol Ped looking forward to the content 👍
Ooh CarAdvice, nice one Joe! I live in Brisbane, Australia and read and watch their content quite a bit - I look forward to seeing if you appear on their content! Just bear in mind that I've found a lot of their content to be bias towards Volkswagen Group products even when some of the competition is arguably better. Hopefully you can help change this hehe. I also placed an order on a nicely optioned 125i M Sport yesterday to replace my Citroen DS3 THP155 (no way I could afford the M140i sadly but the 125i was still a hoot). The 125i I ordered happens to be already on the boat bound for Australia so it's only about a 4 week wait. Managed to get it for the price of a demo because of putting it on finance with BMW thus saving ~$15000aud from the RRP!
CarAdvice do heaps of reviews/tests in Australia.The eastern part of Australia has recently experienced temperatures of above 45 Celsius,which is about 113 Fahrenheit.I've been literally melting for the past 3 days.I'm sure you will enjoy your stay in Australia and I will look forward to your videos.
Great video as always! I love my f56 JCW. Fitted Michelin cup2 tyres and KW coil overs and the transformation is amazing. Only thing I wish I went for was the manual gearbox instead of the (Very good) automatic.
Im looking forward to getting mine. I was initially going to get a 1499 gt as i like the look of it, but when I saw the business contract hire deals on the JCW I changed for a black one like this, no extras apart from visual boost radio but expecting a whole lot of fun
The video we’ve all Been waiting for, JCW vibes 👌👌would be a amazing to have one of these! I think a coatings video would be good from a drivers point of view, consumption, handling etc!
Good vid as always Joe; I’ll be really interested to see your next video on the JCW as I’m seriously thinking of coming out of my X5 40d and ordering an LCI JCW (just been released) in a few months time. There really is a lot to be said for a) fun small hatches and b) something fun but without heavy running costs.
Hey Joe, it's been a while since I've caught up with you channel - life has been...interesting - but as always, decent video. I do like the JCW, great fun!
Hearing that u only earn 250 a month is pretty shit mate u deserve a bigger following, bigger youtubers are half as watchable as u are yet have 10x the followers. Subscribed!!
Loving these Minis - they seem to get better with each generation, it’ll be interesting to hear your thoughts on it over the next week. Great that you’re off to Oz - it’d be fantastic if there was any chance of you driving one of the big Holden Commodores (GTSR-W1 if possible!😈😈😈), now that’s something I’d love to see! - excellent as ever bud!👍👍👍

Hi Joe, Just to say thanks for the reviews I started watching your channel at the beginning of December tossing up between a Golf R, S3, AMG 45 and the M140i. Bought the M140i mid December after watching your reviews and I am loving it, I was very lucky there was 1 left in the country and it was pretty much my exact wish list on specs. The Aussie models come fully loaded and are selling like hot cakes apparently. Hope you enjoy your trip to Australia as an expat living there now I would suspect you will have a blast :)
Agree with you about the wheels. The rubber doesn't look great either. Some serious looking brakes behind them wheels too. Looking forward to more of a review once you've had some more miles with it.
I used to own a first gen MINI GP. The only car I’ve ever regretted selling. Yes the new ones are a more refined car, but the supercharged ones were a total hoot to drive. I don’t feel like you highlighting the particular deal on this MINI is too salesy at all. If they keep giving you cars to review in return for a quick mention of a cracking deal then it’s win win! Have a great time is OZ. My mum is currently in Melbourne and it’s 43 degrees!
Does this mini have bad rev hang? My BMW (with the same engine in a slightly more powerful tune) has, very annoying when changing from first to second or second to third, revs are held high for a second after pressing the clutch to shift up. Can result in a jerky upshift unless you take your time.
Ever drive an R53 JCW GP, Joe? I had one for about a year, and I don’t think there’s been a better mini since to be honest, and arguably (apart from the practicality side) not a better hot hatch.
Hey Joe Just wanted to say I have just discovered and subscribed to your channel recently and it has some amazing content! Out of interest, how did you get into a position where BMW/MINI come to you and offer you cars to do reviews on? Also, if you happen to do another video on the JCW do you think you could do a comparison of the exhaust in Mid vs Sport mode? I test drove one without the Pro exhaust and changing the mode seemed to make a big difference to even the sound on idle (not just the pops and bangs which are obviously amazing), but now I'm wondering if i made that up. PS: to get the best pops supposedly jam it into second, accelerate a bit and let off (when its hot obviously) Cheers!
Hey Joe if you’re coming out to Sydney. I’d love for you to check out my M135i with all M Performance add ons and JB tune. Feel free to drive and UA-cam it! 🙂
that's the problem no JCWs to test drive here, only to order. and the M2C would be my daily (42 UK pounds) and not sure if its a daily car.....great vids!
I loved my mini but when they break it isn't cheap. I would love to get a brand new JCW but the dealership didn't leave a good lasting impression at all and these cars are VERY overpriced to begin with.
We have one but really this car is shit every month a new problem and the bills are fu**ing expensive no more Bmw and or mini anymore!! This car is from my wife. I have a Volkswagen tdi never had problems the last 8 year
Love your honesty about UA-cam money, good to see you achieving and working so hard to push content out !!
I Had a 2016 JCW with adaptive dampers it rode really well on 18's. Once again a case of specifying adaptives on a BMW transfers the car. Fantastic fun car. made me smile every time I drove it.
JCW sounds a lot of fun. Hats off to Tony & Berry group. Look forward to seeing the oz adventures. Safe trip mate👍
Picking up my 2018 long beach blue M2 this Friday ! So excited :-)
Just keep being you and your channel will grow. Always love the vids. I'm also holding you half responsible for now sitting here for a 18 week wait to get my new M140!

Great to hear your going to be working with Petrol Ped looking forward to the content 👍
I love thiz car.... My dream car
Love my R50 with JCW Sound Kit and other parts. I've gone for 17 Inch BBS's with Michelin Pilot Super Sports, improves the ride and handling so much.
Have a luxury blue Mini Cooper JCW with a red roof and red mirrors, the car is amazing!
Congratulations my friend.Was looking at the mini JW before I went for a TTs coupe.Great choice.

You can turn the auto rev match off but you have to turn TC and stability control off. I have a 210 works.
Great video Joe and thank you for the great information on the offers and information to acquire such great deals.
Many thanks Joel

I like the cooper s 10 spoke 17s the best and in silver! Look great on any color mini !
I have a Mini Cooper S JCW and they're fantastic cars, would highly recommened Joe!

Paul Greenhill I’d wait until March and get the cooper S. New touch screen, standard Matrix LEDS & more.

Nice vid Joe! Excited to see the m140i that's on the way!
Great vid as always bud.
Hey Joe, it's been a while since I've caught up with you channel - life has been...interesting - but as always, decent video. I do like the JCW, great fun!
Great video as usual, look forward to some more videos of this car, torn between a JCW or a M135i, coming from a Mini R53

Nice review Joe!! I would also like to see a review of the new X3!!

wow nice car I love this car thanks for sharing!!!
Another great vid despite the man flu! Enjoy Oz buddy 👍
Quality Joe . Will keep an eye out for your Austrailia Stuff 👍
oooh i used to live on Grosvernor road - great hood.

Joe m135i or cooper s jcw ?? I am stuck between them !!

I love my r53 facelift
Awesome car! I'm sure you'll have a great time!

I've been in some amazing cars. Mercedes SLS, Lamborghini Aventador, Audi R8's but the R53 GP is the most impressive car I've ever been in.
incredible patience, i guess it helps if you're busy. about the brainstorming, could you find a track 'cause i love a good battle...
Don't understand how your channel only has 26k subs.
These are damn good fun cars to drive! great video.
I enjoyed the review. Thanks!
Currently own a Golf GTI MK7 and keep looking at these. No doubt they’re mega fun but so tiny compared to the Golf.
Does this mini have bad rev hang? My BMW (with the same engine in a slightly more powerful tune) has, very annoying when changing from first to second or second to third, revs are held high for a second after pressing the clutch to shift up. Can result in a jerky upshift unless you take your time.
Go on Joe! 👍🏻
Not sure about your figures there, the list for new base F56 JCW with zero options is £24,430, those look more like costs for an S...
I always feel that the black plastic wheel arches always let these mini’s down big time
Often Partisan No.
Reminds me of Karting 👍🏻
Yet another top vid Joe. Considering the JWC mini after my 140i but really don’t know if I can ever let the 140i go????
Gary murdoch the 140i is a classic in the making imo. Hang on to it! :)
You’ll be going from a b58 to b48 not that that’s bad but the 140i is a league above
Ever drive an R53 JCW GP, Joe? I had one for about a year, and I don’t think there’s been a better mini since to be honest, and arguably (apart from the practicality side) not a better hot hatch.
say hello to Petrolped !
I have those black 17 inch wheels on mine there immaculate I’ll swap you for yours ;)
Very good yah...

17's look much better! we got the dealer to change from the 18's to the 17's!
Mark Roberts Disagree.
Hey Joe if you’re coming out to Sydney. I’d love for you to check out my M135i with all M Performance add ons and JB tune. Feel free to drive and UA-cam it! 🙂
Joe, if you had to choose would it be the JCW or M2C?
I did have to chose, M2 C is on a totally different level and price point
I can get a fully loaded on 15% off this week (US spec) for about 54.5K is it worth 16K more than the JCW? your opinion and if so why?...….Thanks
@@mikewils3376 buy the M2 C. The JCW is fun but doesn't compare to the M2 C. Try both cars
that's the problem no JCWs to test drive here, only to order. and the M2C would be my daily (42 UK pounds) and not sure if its a daily car.....great vids!
Whats the deal you got on m140i?
Not a fan of Minis but enjoy 👍
Are Might car mods and you collaborating
Really enjoyed the vid :-)
Great video. This mini or a Mk7.5 Fiesta ST?
Sam Austin mini
Why do you guys drive on the right side? It looks so weird. Wth
It was so fun until my timing chain broke and my warranty expired.
I loved my mini but when they break it isn't cheap. I would love to get a brand new JCW but the dealership didn't leave a good lasting impression at all and these cars are VERY overpriced to begin with.
Yes, the 18" are very ugly but the JWC gets bigger brakes that the 17" can't fit over. So you can't "just get the 17 inch wheels".
sliwka621 Not ugly at all.
There are 17" wheels that fit as options for the jcw.
I want mini Cooper but I have no money
Ahhhhh shit mate I knew you had a man flu even before you mentioned it. Hope you get better soon.
Why is everything centered around that BMW dealer... It's so boring now 😂
I followed. Remember to thank me.
I want car 😭
Way prefer a clubman. Completely disagree with you.
The JCW Mini is a bit Ed Sheeran...fuckin ugly but it sounds nice.
We have one but really this car is shit every month a new problem and the bills are fu**ing expensive no more Bmw and or mini anymore!! This car is from my wife. I have a Volkswagen tdi never had problems the last 8 year
Daddy..
Get the flu jab Joe !
I want car 😭
I followed. Remember to thank me.
Thanks
