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.

BMW and Mini getting GoPro integration

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

The small, high-quality and relatively inexpensive GoPro camera has been revolutionary for Internet video, especially of cars. Imagine how much awesomeness and hilarity we would have missed without them. Finding ways to integrate the cams into performance cars is becoming increasingly popular among automakers, as well. For example, the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette has its Performance Data Recorder, and Volkswagen is giving GoPros to early buyers of the 2015 GTI. BMW Group is going straight to the source for its rendition, though, with a new app that allows drivers to control a GoPro from inside of some BMW and Mini vehicles.
In July, owners with 2012 or later models equipped with BMW Apps or Mini Connected can download the new app. There are a few hurdles to jump over, though. Not only do users need a model with the infotainment system, a WiFi-equipped GoPro camera is also required. The app also must be installed on an iPhone connected to the vehicle.
Once all of those stipulations are met, the app can configure and control the GoPro through iDrive and display a nearly live image on the infotainment system. Menus are simplified on-screen but still allow users to select among six camera modes, aim it and start and stop recording. While filming, it shows recording time, battery life and signal strength. While BMW's approach isn't quite as nicely integrated as the Corvette's solution, it's interesting to see automakers working to make filming easier. Scroll down to read the full announcement.

Mini Clubvan ready for boutique chic delivery duty from $25,985

Sat, 23 Mar 2013

The light commercial vehicle market has exploded in recent years. With a too-large full-size van no longer the only option for small businesses looking for an enclosed cargo carrier, options like the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Ford Transit Connect and now this, the Mini Clubvan, are now available to suit every size need.
Unveiled at last year's Geneva Motor Show, the Clubvan will soon be on sale here in the US and we finally have details about what that transaction will cost you. Motoring File reports that the Clubvan's price will be $25,985, which includes the so-called "chicken tax" and a $700 destination and handling charge.
Other questions that were answered include whether or not the Clubvan can be ordered as a Cooper S or even John Cooper Works model, and the answer is no (why do need to deliver cakes that fast anyway?). Also, Mini has confirmed you can't take the shortcut of creating your own Clubvan by purchasing a standard Clubman and removing the rear seats. The factory Clubvan features steel side panels instead of vinyl coverings over the rear windows, as well as a fully flat load floor and a safety cage protecting front seat occupants.

Mini Cooper five-door exists and has been spotted

Fri, 09 Nov 2012

The two-door Mini Cooper is getting two additional portals in its next generation. A coming five-door Cooper S with central exhaust has been spotted out testing, the idea presumably being that it will pose a better challenge to other small, premium hatches in the segment like the A1 Sportback from Audi. Based on the same UKL platform that will support the production version of the BMW Concept Active Tourer, the wheelbase has been lengthened to make more room for rear passengers.
It should be revealed on the auto show circuit at some point next year, getting buyers ready for its production in 2014. We'll find out then if it gets a special name and how it fits in with - or perhaps replaces - the Clubman.
