Honestly mate Ruby looks stunning! I love the colour of the alloys and the JPS colour combo too. The attention to detail and mapping are spot on. Darren is such a humble knowledgeable enthusiast, hope to see you do more things with him.
Hi Ped Your love affair is renewed, and WOW Ruby looks fantastic.🤗 Look forward to a full video and more detail at your leisure. All credit to Darren and his team.
Fantastic! The excitement before the car was unveiled was PalPable! You seem a bit like me - having something bespoke or built specifically for you is way more special than something just expensive or "new"...
You did well to get rid of the 'pops & bangs' tune, the DVSA have successfully prosecuted a tuning garage in Wakefield for one with a cat delete. It could have implications for tuners going forward, as they exceed the alowable emissions and drive by noise levels.
Your body doesn't look as though the road is beating you up as you drive! That is a very poignant difference from where I'm sitting. Those lads put in so many lovely, spot-on details, too. I'm sure it was so satisfying to get home and drink in all the changes along with a glass of wine. Superb!

❤Ruby❤ Fabulous to have Mini back on the channel and great inspiration for my JCW in the future. Well done Darren @Mulgari, you’ve made Pete and Ruby’s fans very happy!
As a former Mini Roadster owner, I'm overjoyed to see RR looking, sounding, and driving so great. Makes me miss my Geoffrey (the '14 Roadster S) so much!!
Looking at getting a clubman s next year and came across your channel whilst looking into the clubman in general and gotta say the mini content got me hooked. I'm new but loving it mate keep it up
She looks absolutely amazing mate. Sounds incredible and for me I am very happy to still see you going down the road in her for much more time to come.
Great stuff. And how nice that even with everything else you drive, it still gets you like it does. I remember back in my Subaru days having them mapped by the late JollyGreenMonster aka Simon. We once mapped it on the road 😂. Then after that on a rolling road, but it transformed the car. Got a few jobs to do on my 981, tyres being one, and you’ve just given me the inspiration!!.
❤ hi Pete, sorry I’ve been away for so long. I’ve been too well. Great to see Ruby wrote the back on the road again looking as good as ever. Nice move what you’ve done to her. I like you very much. She really looks classy. bless her. All the best Pete take great care of love 🥰
Absolutely love it make me feel really happy when I see you treating the Mini right. It’s looking fantastic and definitely you make the right decision going with this direction for your car 👍🏁
Just absolutely amazing Sir Pete! Ruby looks stunning! A very nicely done makeover! Great job Darren! Sir Pete can’t wait for the review of this car after having it back for a bit and how much you love the changes! Also would be cool to hear what Tracey has to say about ruby now!
Darren has done a beautiful job, the styling is spot on. The colour of the wheels is just perfect and a colour I personally would love on my own car. Looking forward to seeing more of Ruby on the channel with some updates on how the new mods are working for you day to day.
Very happy to see that you have sorted out the issues with Ruby. Also thank you for bringing to my attention Mulgari, someone who I may take a drive to visit and see about getting some work carried out.
Hello Pete. after i watched your first video of ruby i had to get a roadster. i got it about 6 yrs ago but it was my only car so it was my daily. i thought i'd be practical so got a diesel but still didn't regret it. on the facebook page you remarked the colour was stunning. i loved that car but because of ulez it had to go. a few weeks ago when i first saw the video about what you were going to do with ruby my heart sank thinking you were getting rid of her. how glad am i that you've done what you have because i would never use a car like this on a track so a road focused r59 in my eyes is perfection. please, have fun with her and if you ever just end up with one car in your garage let it be Ruby. P.S you could always put a basket on the bike for the pooches
Well done Darren working your Mulgari wizard magic again, ruby looks awesome, I saw this at each stage being transformed...... Thanks for featuring my Enzo too 😃🐾
Don't know if Lotus ever worked on a mini. Don't think so. Well, if they did the 'modern' mini, this might be it. Hope Ruby will be back on the channel now. Cheers!
Fantastic update for Ruby, Pete . I really like what Mulgari has done Darren certainly knows his stuff. I'm just wondering, Pete, are you going to have locking wheel nuts with the costs of your tyres and wheels ?. I always have locking nuts on my cars I don't trust anyone on carparks. Happy motoring again you lucky person. I bet your wife will be getting the keys back again for work it'll be a battle. It's well worth updating Ruby.
I was just trying to help. I live by the rule better being safe than sorry Pete. But Ruby is absolutely amazing. I really miss my Mini but had to change due to an accident last year at work injured my back. You should be very proud. 👏 👍
Darren is clearly a genius, ruby looks amazing and it looks like she drives amazingly too!! I think I need someone like Darren to work some magic on my Fiesta ST150 as I’m thinking of changing as it’s not as refined as I’d like and I no longer get the same excitement driving it. Enjoy driving the new Ruby!!
Fantastic video, great work done by Mulgari on the car 👏🏻 it looks great, and looks like it drives fantastically well! Sorry if this has already been covered - I have watched the series but can’t recall - is that exhaust aftermarket or stock? Sounds 👌🏻
Hi Ped. Ruby is looking brillant now and pulls like a train! Your original modification videos drew me to your channel so good to see Ruby back and glad you have corrected some annoying issues 🙂
Massive congratulations on the new ruby roadster updates, Followed since you first purchased her, and can safely say the smile on your face is unbelievable ❤ Seriously if you are ever gonna get rid off the Alcon brakes I would love to have a part off ruby on my Jcw Nemo Pete love the channel and you sir
What have you been washing it with, a pick axe handle? It needs clay barring and a mop! Love the upgrades, camber on the wheels actually looks correct now.
Hi Peter, Ruby looks absolutely fabulous and when you add in the performance and the upgrades you have done its the perfect early Sunday morning drive car. Kind regards Alan B
Ruby looks amazing 👏 looks like I will be calling on Darren! When we met you at the Thruxton bash, you said go to Mulagari .... think its on the cards.
Really pleased you've fallen in love with Ruby again, Pete. That was the right thing to do for her, she looks fabulous! Hindsight is a wonderful thing (you went too far).
Hi Pete I had the Bilsteins B14 under my R53 GP when the oem's were worn. Good set for the money. I like the color of your wheels. I like Ruby but for me a little bit too much badges and stickers on and in her. :) And she deserves some new shiny bolts under the hood instead of the rusty ones. I don't understand why Mulgari didn't change them. It is a cheap "mod" for making the look under the hood nicer. I changed them together with the bolts that are holding the dampers above on my R58. And congrats with your over 200k subs. Greetings from the Netherlands. :)
Just got to see this now. Looks great. Why did you not go back to Lohen with your issues? - if you don’t mind me asking? And did you do a before and after Dyno before the Mulgari tune? Their website is pretty awful so it’s not really possible to get an understanding of what’s involved with their services in any detail, yet they still look impressive from your filming. Thanks for your content - it’s great!
Awesome video. I love it when you do mini videos, it’s why I followed you in the first place. Have to say Ruby got some going over. Would love my mini to get the same. 🚗💨💨💨
Amazing job. Will be interested to see how you get on with driving Ruby and how much difference these changes will make. The initial drive says it all. "Like driving a new car"
Looks, sounds and goes fantastic! There’s a lot to be said for good tuners who can map really well. Collins Performance and Litchfield are another set of brilliant tuners. The only other thing that might be worth doing is the fog lights on the grille could do being changed as the lenses look a bit dull compared to the headlights. Easy change though 😊
My first MINI and current came with sport mode and until I took it on a road trip up the highlands NC500 west coast side I thought it didn’t do anything. It was only when I pulled out after a break after have sports mode on all day and thought “ Oh no what’s up with my Car” and remember I hadn’t pressed it. 😂 Next MINI spec’d with the sports button best £50 option 👍 Right Road-trip is needed in it. Monaco with Mrs P or back up take Joe A sharing the driving.
Oh lord, my completely stock 2015 47k miles JCW R57 is sitting in the garage and I now need Mulgari to take a deep and meaningful look at it….Not bothered about the visuals so much, No 1 for me would be ‘breathing with the road’ rather than trying to beat it into submission…! Next would be the engine more linear power would be great. I’m only 60 miles up the M4 as well….
@@PetrolPed a genuinely unbiased warts and all review of rubys mods would be welcome when you’ve done few miles. Are mulgari really better than mini/bmw engineers at chassis design?

Good evening pal, yes, it’s catch up time once again. 👍👍🇬🇧
🖐
So glad you gave it the chance to be the car you deep down knew it could be. Im upgrading my cooper to a jcw today. Wish me luck!
Ruby looks and sounds so great. It certainly put a lot of smiles on your face when you saw her and drove her home.
Oh yes 🙌
Honestly mate Ruby looks stunning! I love the colour of the alloys and the JPS colour combo too. The attention to detail and mapping are spot on. Darren is such a humble knowledgeable enthusiast, hope to see you do more things with him.
Couldn't agree more!
The car looks lifted now its brightened it up asetically plus engine supension wheel mods .
It looks great
Thanks 🙏🏻
Wonderful Pete. Goodbye Sqeaky welcome back Ruby. Bet Tracy is going to be very happy. Enjoy….a lot

Fantastic! The excitement before the car was unveiled was PalPable! You seem a bit like me - having something bespoke or built specifically for you is way more special than something just expensive or "new"...

Ruby Red looks great. Hoping I can find some proper mini tuners here in the New York tri state area.
Thanks 🙏🏻

Indeed 👍
Properly looks really good and impressed with the work done to the car! Love it
As a former Mini Roadster owner, I'm overjoyed to see RR looking, sounding, and driving so great. Makes me miss my Geoffrey (the '14 Roadster S) so much!!
Maybe time for another 🤔😜😂
@@PetrolPed Well, yes, if Mini still made them. I'm doing OK with my Mazda MX-5 Miata as something of a substitute for Geoffrey.
Looking at getting a clubman s next year and came across your channel whilst looking into the clubman in general and gotta say the mini content got me hooked. I'm new but loving it mate keep it up
Welcome aboard!
Welcome home Ruby, glad you’re feeling much better, your new outfit looks stunning.
Thank you! 😊
She looks absolutely amazing mate. Sounds incredible and for me I am very happy to still see you going down the road in her for much more time to come.
That's the plan!
100% improvement. The gold bits on the black and red looks class. Lovely job.
Let us know what Mrs PP thinks of it.

I’m definitely going to them for my remap and possibly some extras
Do. They are ace 👍

Hi Pete
I had the Bilsteins B14 under my R53 GP when the oem's were worn. Good set for the money.
I like the color of your wheels.
I like Ruby but for me a little bit too much badges and stickers on and in her. :)
And she deserves some new shiny bolts under the hood instead of the rusty ones.
I don't understand why Mulgari didn't change them. It is a cheap "mod" for making the look under the hood nicer. I changed them together with the bolts that are holding the dampers above on my R58.
And congrats with your over 200k subs.

That wheel and tyre combo!!
🔥
The new and improved JPS Ruby 🎉
Indeed 👍
Just got to see this now. Looks great. Why did you not go back to Lohen with your issues? - if you don’t mind me asking? And did you do a before and after Dyno before the Mulgari tune? Their website is pretty awful so it’s not really possible to get an understanding of what’s involved with their services in any detail, yet they still look impressive from your filming. Thanks for your content - it’s great!
I live a very long way from Lohen and really like what Mulgari are doing at the moment 👍
Understood. Many thanks. I’d say (and not expecting you to comment), that Lohen seem very expensive. Did you do a before and after Dyno with Mulgari?
It’s what it should be - a drivers car - 👍 nice one !
