Our reviews give you two perspectives. Jakub takes the perspective of the car enthusiast, while Yuri represents the interests of the general consumer. You won't find details about engine compression ratios here, instead you'll have real world opinions on what it's like to drive and own cars.

You guys reviewed the Kona. Both are turbo 4 cylinder cuv's. Which was more fun of the two?
Test drove this and the 1.6T Kona. Ended up with the Kona. Better value I think.
More fun than a macan?
Macan or XC40
Nissan Juke Nismo, almost same power, almost half the price! With the money you save, buy a Nissan Micra for the fun.
7:49 Guess I'm not sleeping tonight.
😂
I've been binge watching your reviews the last couple days. How am I just finding this channel?
Share it with your buddies so they don't miss out either
Encouraging you to use the other hand when opening a door helps you to check for cyclists as you twist your body. It's actually part of the Dutch driving test.
Excellent point about #DutchReach, @Arthur Embleton.
Well mention it soon in a video!
In Italy too
We need less cyclist in Canada. Use your left hand to open the door and save the right hand for covering your eyes.
@Arthur Embleton in America we make sure to run cyclists over I’ve got 2 last Month haha.
I'm not even a car guy and I've watched most of your videos...I guess I'm a car guy now!
That's what we love to hear!
Welcome to the club :)
You know what? Those door handles might be a safety feature. Reaching across with your opposite hand forces you to turn your head so you're more likely to see cyclists coming up next to you. The ol' Dutch Reach.
True
Using your opposite hand to open the door saves you taking out cyclists and is taught in Scandanavia. It forces you to look before opening. Great review guys.
This has to be far and away my fave car related channel, I seriously can't wait to see what the future holds!
200kmh---> 124mph
Took delivery of mine yesterday, the HUD you can adjust to your seat position in driver profile. I'm 6"4 and it's fine
I was JUST looking at these yesterday and wishing there was a Straight Pipes review for it! You guys are awesome!!
It’d be really cool if you guys could get a new Mini convertible before winter, and once it starts getting colder, maybe test out the new Clubman! Also those older Clubmans are one of my favorites!!
+TheStraightPipes This one gave me an idea: I'm a US guy but I grew up on some Canadian programming, remember "You Can't Do That On Television" ??? (maybe you don't because I might be a little older) but they did this thing called the Opposite Skits, look it up. Anyhow, every so often you two should unexpectedly switch roles.
It's always a good day when a new Straight Pipes or Savage Geese video comes out.
Plus RegularCars!
I love your Mini reviews! I’m thinking about getting a clubman soon, but I’m waiting for you all to do a review first haha
I like that lifted version at 3:45.
Been watching you guys for over a year now, trying to decide what I wanted when I had no boundaries for cross-shopping other than price. I seriously got so close to a Q5, A5 sportback, AllRoad, Stinger GT2, and Stelvio at different points. Then I found this MINI 2 weeks ago and came back here to watch your review. Bought a Countryman S ALL4 with JCW package (unfortunately not the engine; couldn't find one) yesterday! Thanks, guys! Looking forward to continuing to watch all of your videos even though my car search is done. (for now! Haha)
Congrats!!
Just picked up the hybrid Countryman & I'm loving it, MINI won't tell you this but it's actually quicker than the JCW to 100kmh.
but does it... "PopoPOPOpOPoppopOPp"?
No manual transmission makes it a no go for one who likes to be more engaged with the driving.
Thanks for the review. Picking one up in manual tomorrow.
You guys are killing it as always!
This new gen is a massive improvement over the previous version in terms of looks and perceived interior quality. In saying that the Mk2 Clubman is IMO, the best looking one after the 3 door hatch. It is so well proportioned compared to the 5 door and the aforementioned Countryman
yup. got me a 2020 JCW CM on its way from the factory. so excited!! needed space but love my Minis. also 300hp and a one of a kind CUV with AWD.
This peacefull review work deserve more views/likes, good work guys⚡️
Greetings from Holland
I remember when MINIs were MINI. Thanks for the content! I hope to review one soon!
LEXUriouS Kirk yeah that was years ago now there getting bigger and more electric
With the door handles, you turn your hand to the outside and push with your elbow to get the door open. Pretty comfortable
Just bought a 2018 Countryman JCW !
Love the content, keep it up👍
Love the videos
I think the countryman feels the same size as the cooper in the back but just a bit taller
Real talk, you guys should review the Clubman.
NOICE!!! Killed it again boys!
You can change the angle of the Heads Up Display through the radio settings. Tall people friendly.
Fun fact, if you have a sequential you can flip the shift lever and shift the other way around, might be a setting, might be dependant on the trans manufacturer
for the us mini the checkered flags go on from 140-160
Thanks!
No problem it just ended up looking on cars.com to figure it out
Stephen Cain are you sure you saw correctly? I’m seeing 120-160mph.
ivydjm89 woops I meant 120 I guess I didn’t notice the typo
We trusted you Stephen
Thanks for the video. I was just suggesting ‘smaller’ cars this weekend ... I hadn’t considered this a a possible recommendation. But after watching your video... the regular Mini might worth ‘thinking’ about... well at least a Test Drive. Thanks again.
If your careful with the application of options they can be quite affordable and they usually have much better colour options than other manufacturers.
My concern about recommending the Mini was that “I’ve heard” that 100% of the automatic transmissions have failed or will fail. The individual (that I was assisting) cannot drive a manual ... sadly. Aside from that I don’t think you could find anyone who doesn’t like the Mini’s unique style. I love them.
I own one of those ugliest MINI coopers, and I love it, you big jerk.
❤️
I drive a regular mini right now but it sucks in the winter. Getting this car next spring for sure
JCW Clubman next? :D
Exists 😎
Head up display is adjustable for height and rake, so taller drivers can read it without difficulty
You sold it to me. Good work guys.
Yuri flashin’ that Vincero!
Is that Yuri hiding a yawn @4:30!? Lol! Also, I would love to see a 2019 G63 review, with mentions of everything they changed from the previous version. Thanks for the awesome videos guys!
love your videos...hi from greece
You sold me with the pops
Great review, as always! But I would LOVE for you to test the JCW CLUBMAN.
Seconded. The new Clubman is much more refined and better-looking than the last gen pic they showed in this video.
Toggle switches ftw!
Great video guys!
As always the most entertaining car reviewers on RUclips! There's just this focus/sharpness issue in a lot of the scenes when the camera is directed towards you that is a bit disappointing. Apart from this your videos are probably the most professionally produced car reviews on RUclips!
More Minis!
I could see the bench being useful when you need to put your ski boots on in the parking lot.
I'm tall and find the head up display is perfect in my Cooper JCW. You can actually change the angle of it in the options on the infotainment.
For the door handle you have to use the opposite hand so you check backwards and see if a car is coming. The Aston Martin said so.
At this point I'll just believe you edit in the pops later lmao.
Great vid as always! Nice car but kinda pricey.
Was just wondering about the new JCWs yesterday. This is 2spooky.
You took off road!. I was pleasantly surprised about thus MINI. I drove a.manual. I have never liked the automatic Mini. Heidi
If only you’d waited just a few months to review this! It now comes with 306BHP! 🔥🔥
This being Petrol driven is probably really responsive and fun. Though personally I m not too keen on the Countryman here in India because one only gets a Diesel version - and Mini + Diesel just does not gel at all.
This does have a digital speed read out within the analogue speedo.
Those pops holy smokes
I NEED this vehicle.
Y'all need to do a retro review on a 91 Eagle Talon Tsi with the stick. I miss mine!
Amazing little car. This version is really bigger than the previous one. In Brazil we receive only automatic version for them. Sad but true.
A review from a Mercedes SLC43 would be nice.
Interesting car for sure.
I have a 2012 base Countryman S and you guys are making me so jealous. I want a 2018 but I'm too broke lol
Try to review the 1st gen Mini's (Supercharged R53 for example ;) And btw keep up the good work guys. Been enjoying your channel from around 30k subscribers!
Love Mini
Love Video
The JCW may have my favorite "POP".
It's okay the price will be half in 2 years. Add in CPO warranty and it will be an excellent value.
them shift farts got my body feelin real nice
Lolllllllll
THAT CAR LOOKS SO DEVASTATED 😂
jesus, she wrote ikr 😂😂😂
This video really is convincing me to get a mini. Even with the weird handle thing. Ugh. SO MANY OPTIONS!!
Do the 2019 Honda Pilot Black Edition review
Ok I'm back from the other video, please continue...🙂🙂🙂
Haha I love the wiggle towards the end
You guys should review a Chrysler 300s
i'd like to see the hyundai i30 n performance in a review here , u guys are the best
i30 I belive is european only, we dont have it over here in america
I have a 2013 Paceman Cooper S ALL4 its a great car but on run flats it is barely tolerable it is bone jarring stiff on Canadian roads (Alberta). I changed them over as they don't last 20K KM. Once i changed the tires the car was much more tolerable. It is a blast in the snow and in the winter but you have to be realistic as to what it is. It has been reliable so far and good gas mileage. When you bump into another mini driver it's always a wave and nod to appreciate that you bought something different than the boring normal....
Colin Goldthorpe do you use premium gasoline?
I'm shopping in this market right now, I love all your vids and just found your channels (I'm a Toronto guy), I'm looking at 1) 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe, 2) 2019 Forester, 3) 2018/19 VW Sportwagon, 4) VW Tiguan, 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk - help me decide. The vehicle is mostly a weekend vehicle to go up to Collingwood skiing and some around town.
Hey toronto guy. Get a jcw
I know they're in different classes, but... do you guys prefer this or the Stinger? Fully loaded, this is about the same price as a GT2, so I'm curious.
Thomas Frank I would say the Stinger its more value for the money more powerful looks amazing and practical that’s all you need
Definitely the Stinger GT
TheStraightPipes it’s literally the best car Kia has now
Awesome, no need for FOMO then :P
I get it it’s good
could you guys do a box test with the seats up on future reviews?
Review the mini clubman next
Check out the new mini clubman.
Could you guys do a review on the 2019 Corolla Hatchback?
Can you compare this and the regular mini so I can get a sense of scale coz right now I just see it as the same size
The 2018 Biggie Cooper
Damn I can't imagine a bigger mini. In the whole video I couldn't perceive it as a big crossover. I would need to see it beside a normal mini to get it.
Can you get it with that super cool remote button that activates the sport exhaust?
Tuning in within a day. 😄
Can you guys do a review on the plugin hybrid version please please please???
Actually it will coast in neutral while using cruise control going downhill while in green mode
If you hold the interior led color switcher thing for about 5 seconds or so, it will flash. Then the color will be rainbow
Yuri don't ever stop saying Canadian after the price lol
You use the opposite hand so you do the Dutch check every time i.e. checking for cars behind you in your blind spot (I'm guessing)
What is your car?
Me: *COUNTRY MAN*
They need to test drive the Mini Cooper countryman hybrid.
If you drive on the right side and you push the stick to Sport+ it actually angle toward the passenger which annoy the hell out of me.
Best mini ever! I wish I had one but they're so expensive. And besides that's a better crossover than the rest of those bland crossovers lol
As always great work guys!. Do a Ford Taurus at some point please
Cesar Ramos it sucks that Ford is taking away the Taurus
Taurus SHO!
ichor20 the best
Any thoughts on a Passat R line as a first car ?
Pls make a review on the BMW m6. It's a great car. Pls😅
(They are ready to do any remotely cool car.
Stop asking them.
Go beg BMW to give them a car to test)
I love how Yuri always clarifies the Canadian currency pricing. How about some other world currency pricing, Yuri? What's this (insert subject vehicle) cost in pesos, dinars, pounds sterling, euros, rubles, kroners, dongs...(for your Vietnamese subscribers...lol)?
Cad. Maybe usd
It's a bargain at 814,000,000 dong!
Subaru Forester XT. Where that at? We need more subies
Hey! Bro's do review for Sq5 2018 audi.
