2009 Mini Cooper Clubman John Cooper Works!

You have to see this car! I bought it for a tow vehicle behind my RV and absolutely fell in love with it. They are fast fast fast, have Brembo brakes and tons of room. If you are comparing a regular Mini, an S and a John Cooper Works...don't, the others don't hold a candle to the JCW, these things are just awesome and a riot to drive! Why am I selling it you ask, I had to sell my RV so now I dont need it.

Here are a few details from a write up I found: 

The Specs
Under the hood, you'll find what is essentially the same 1.6-liter engine that powers the Cooper S—this time with a revised cylinder head, a bigger turbocharger and slightly different intake plumbing. According to Mini, the exhaust valves have a slightly thinner back cut than those of the Cooper S. Subtle though the changes may seem, they're enough to get the car to 60 mph in a claimed 6.2 seconds (6.5 for the four-door Clubman), and to a top speed of 148 mph. 

The turbocharger is essentially the same Borg Warner unit found on the Cooper S but with a slightly bigger exhaust housing. Peak boost of 11.6 psi (14.5 psi in overboost) is available at 1850 rpm, as compared with 1600 rpm in the Cooper S. An enlarged catalytic converter and downpipe help evacuate exhaust gases into an aggressive-looking cat-back exhaust. The revised system nets 207 hp at 6000 rpm, with 192 ft.-lb. of torque available from 1850 to 5600 rpm—not too bad from a mere 1.6 liters. Gas mileage suffers a little bit, but the JCW still offers econobox thrift, at 25 mpg city and 33 mpg highway. That's just 1 mpg less than the 175 hp Cooper S. 

The JCW gets all that increased power to the ground by way of a beefier clutch, a slightly modified transmission and BMW's Electronic Differential Lock Control (EDLC). This device slows the spinning wheel(s) through the brakes, like a more refined version of traction control, and sends more power to the wheel with traction. It's a lot like a limited-slip differential, but without the torque-steer. 

Inside, things are standard Cooper S fare: The car comes with grippy cloth seats as well as standard piano-black dash trim and an anthracite headliner. The John Cooper Works will be offered in the same array of paint colors as the Cooper S. 

The Drive
Peak power may arrive a bit later than on the Cooper S, but you'll never notice. Turbo boost seems to be available any time you need it. And in the lower gears, it's more than enough. It's an absolute blast, and you hot-shoe around town completely guilt-free—knowing even the hottest Mini of them all still sips fuel. 

Electric steering usually guarantees there will be precious little information transmitted to the driver about what those front tires are doing. But that's simply not the case here. The steering is quick and direct, with the weighting you might expect from the BMW-owned company. The rack makes a perfect companion to the short throw shifter, which offers neat rifle-bolt snicks into each gear. Throw the shifter down a couple gears for a corner, and the delightfully raucous exhaust will offer the occasional pop and gurgle. It's a great sound that's reminiscent of race-equipped Minis of the 1960s. 

The only thing we might find cause to complain about is the highway ride. It's no stiffer than a Cooper S, mind you, as they share the same suspension, and both cars have run-flat tires (ours was equipped with Continental ContiSport Contact 3 rubber in 205/45R17 sizing; production cars will be shod with Dunlop SP Sport tires in the same size). But we've found even the Cooper S is a bit stiff on California freeways. The optional dealer-installed John Cooper Works suspension stiffens things up further and lowers the car by 10mm for the more hardcore. But you may want to try the car as it comes from the factory first—stiffer is not always better. JCW cars will feature 12.4-in., four-piston Brembo brakes up front, with 11-in. brakes out back. As one might imagine, pedal feel and stopping power from this Brembo setup is vastly improved over the Cooper S. 

The Bottom Line
The Mini Cooper JCW may just be the most economical way to go fast in these days of $4-a-gallon gasoline. That is, if you can get over the sticker shock­: The JCW starts at $29,200, but a decked-out Clubman can run you in excess of $42,000. That, friends, is not cheap. But the upshot is you will have a lot of fun as a member of this very exclusive club




The car is perfect however does have a rebuilt title. The previous owner rear-ended someone but as to why the insurance company totaled it is a mystery...it just was not THAT hurt. It was repaired using all factory parts at the Larry Miller Collision Center here in SLC Utah and I have all the photos/details of what was done. 

It has all brand new tires and only minor scuffs on the rims. The flat black decals mixed with the carbon fiber JCW badges, hood scoop, mirror and door handles look terrific, its most certainly a one off Mini. NADA says its worth $22,650 but I am taking off some for the branded title but again, the car is perfect...and the tow hook cover in the front bumper, it is still coming from the dealer.

If you are local feel free to come and see it.

Mini goes zany with latest accessories catalog

Tue, 25 Mar 2014

Driving a Mini is most definitely an individualistic choice - one that not everyone would get on board with. So if you're going to go with such a fashion statement, you might as well give it your own sense of style. That's where Mini's new line of accessories come in.
Available for the new third-gen Mini hardtop, the accessories offer buyers the opportunity to customize their retro hatchback as best they see fit. There are roof graphics, accessory lighting, wheel upgrades and mirror caps (like the cartoonish ones pictured at right) just like you would have found in the parts catalog for previous iterations of the Mini, but now the brand is offering four appearance kits it's calling Mini Design Lines.
The kits are color coordinated in either Vivid Green, Speedwell Blue, John Cooper Works Pro (in black, red and grey) and Essential Black and include everything from the interior trim to exterior graphics. They might not be to everyone's taste, but that kinda strikes us as the point. Scope 'em out in the extensive high-res image gallery above and the details in the press release below.

Sorting through the rat's nest that is Mini's model history

Sat, 13 Apr 2013

What do Austin, Morris, British Motor Corporation, British Motor Holdings, British Leyland, Rover Group, and BMW all have in common? Each company has had a hand in bringing the world a sprightly, fuel-efficient, front-wheel-drive fun box on wheels - the Mini.
The Sir Alec Issigonis-designed car has been sold under more brand names and with more model designations than most of us would guess. For seven generations of the classic Mini, from 1959 to 2000, the car carried a bewildering number of model names as well. (Note that's even before BMW took over the nameplate, and starting building cars styled as "MINI" rather than "Mini" in 2001.)
As is its want, Hemmings Daily has taken the time to break down the complex lineage of the car, with a kind of model etymology that makes for a pretty entertaining read. Click over to the site to give it a go; but check out our gallery of classic Mini pictures before you jump.

Mini shows how to camp in style

Sun, 21 Jul 2013

If you're the type of person who loves spontaneous road trips and camping, and Volkswagen's Camper Vans aren't your style (or you can't find one for sale in the US), then Mini has what you're looking for: the Clubvan Camper, Cowley caravan or Countryman ALL4 Camp. Unfortunately, Mini says there are no plans to offer any of them for sale. And no, this doesn't seem to be a recycled April fools joke, in which Mini touted the Swindon Roof Top Tent and Cowley.
Let's start with the Clubvan camper, a curious prototype that has a sleeping area for one and an extendable kitchenette featuring a stove and chest fridge. And we say curious because, in addition to not being offered for sale anywhere at this point, the Camper is based on the Clubvan, which was just pulled from US dealerships due to low sales volume. This thing definitely isn't coming to the US.
The Cowley caravan, named after Mini's historic factory in England (known today as Plant Oxford), can be towed behind a Mini vehicle and features a sleeping area for two, a twin-burner gas stove and a water tank complete with pump and sink facility. It looks quite comfortable in there. The Cowley uses a solar panel to charge its onboard battery, and it has a 230-volt connection to power the fridge and entertainment equipment.
