3 months and 6000 miles with the 306hp JCW Clubman could prove expensive !

- Thanks to Mini UK I have been running the 306hp JCW Clubman as my daily for the past 3 months. I have done over 6000miles and learned much about the fastest Mini ever made. It is safe to say I have been impressed. In fact so impressed I now really want to buy one for myself !

Great to see this car getting lots of love. Make sure you SUBSCRIBE BY CLICKING HERE...ruclips.net/user/petrolped
You've got the right car. How about you get yourself a real coffee machine. Hope you get the new JCW later in the year. All the best
LOL...I was waiting for that 😂
Brilliant, honest video Pete. Bought a tear to my eye at the end. Love your gritty, no rubbish RUclips channel, keep up the hard work brother. Matt from Australia 🇦🇺
Wow...thanks Matt 👍
Love this clubby, I just got mine on Monday, an enigmatic black( I think navy blue is what it is) JCW, it's been 5 days and I loveeeeee it and yes I named mine already
Love that colour 👏
@@PetrolPed thank you, she is beautiful!
What did you name her?
@@Coloradoski24 ikemi....
Ololade phillps I thought it was a clubman not a clubby 🙄🙄
Ahhh, a house with no children is a v tidy one... christ, I wish!
Yep 😂
"The lady in my life does have a habit of curbing wheels." Never have I related to something more! Honestly I regret getting the 19 inch wheels on the GTI every time my girlfriend gets behind the wheel!
Try Alligator Rim Protectors. Have used them to date on 4 cars, cost around £60 for set if 4. Much cheaper than refurb, and they do work, my better half has proved it!
Oops 😂
My wife doesn’t drive my cars, She has her car 😎 problem solved 👍
@@haroldhdknoxstreet-glide5331 Best way to keep your sanity, don't mind driving their cars but they are not driving mine!
Brilliant car, one thing that got under my skin - it’s loud inside above 180-200km/h
Oh should have locked down the barricades⌚🔒🔒🔒🔒🧲🧲🧲🧲🧲🧲🧲🧲 woooin it doesn't work even though it impression of the best and 3 months I'm going miss it too😞😩😫😵🤒😤🥞🍧🍨🍦🥧🍰🍮🎂🧁🍷🍷🥃🥃🥃
Great review, they are fantastic cars, I’ve had my new countryman for two months now and it’s grown under my skin already , just like my cooper and coooper s did
They do that don't they 👌
Loved this Car. I thought the beginning was a Coffee advert 😂 Soon be one in the garage👍🧽🏁
Maybe a touch over the top 😂
I got a 2020 clubman cooper s in Nz ordered it in Oct 2019 and it has a wireless charger in the centre console as standard...
MINI - Let him have a Countryman JCW for a while. PETE - It's got roofs rails! Hey, MINI, I know you don't need any help selling Countryman's (I can tell that by the fact that you can't get a test drive anywhere in the UK) so do us Gen 2 JCW Paceman/ Countryman owners a favour and let Petrol Ped do the testing for us......
Countryman makes up 25% of all new Mini sales. I will be getting a Countryman JCW press car soon 👍
I what one 🎉
Sorry this isn,t a Clubman, the one and only is the R55, he wins the red dot award for Design, that you driving is complet other car it,s an 1 series based ugly tin bucket with 6 Doors, the Design is a shame, so that it fits the frame of the 1 series, it has been completely adapted. The side relationship from height to the side is a disaster, since nothing comes together and has nothing to do with the mini design, too bad, but I drive a real one and will also never give up anymore.
Not a fan then 😜😂
@@PetrolPed that's the way it is ;-)
Well, I'm beginning to hate you,,, and why's that you may ask. It now looks like I could be outing the Range Rover and replacing it with an Audi S4 and one of these little beauties,,, oh well, there goes my daughters inheritance,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Go for it 😂
may drive well have 306 hp but its just ugly
I just bought my clubman 2 weeks ago and I’m in love just as I was with my cooper! Never thought I could love anything as much as my cooper, but my clubman has won my heart! ❤️❤️❤️
That is great to hear Leslie. Great cars aren't they 👌
Petrol Ped yes they are!
Mini can change anyone make them fall in love 😀😃😃😃
How did you come up with the name petrol ⛽️ Ped . From Australia 🇦🇺 love 💓 great job. 🌟🏁
My name is Peter but friends and family have called me Pedro for years (long story !). I am a Petrol Head so when I started the channel I thought Petrol Ped was a good name 😜
Sorry, it's petrol. Don't you care about the enviroment? Certainly not an ambassador for the EV world.
Watch the channel over the next week and then tell me that 😜
Got a 2019 cooper s my next one defo jcw clubman funds permitting !!!!!
Got to disagree,rear not that nice,too many light clusters and double doors on a car that small !
Hey Pete, really loved this last review, so heartfelt! 😢. I'm sure others will come your way soon! Your fantastic reviews just command that happening! I loved those real world comments about money, so true pal. Take care! 😊 Congratulations on the 50k subs!
Thanks Eric 🙏
I don't like the new Mini - it isn't mini. But I have never driven one and normally ride a 'bike, so deferring to your experience.
Driving one might change your way of thinking 😜
Congratulations done Pete. You get my vote for "Ham Actor of the Year 2020." 🏆 And it's only February too... :-))...
You're absolutely right about spotlights for the front of ANY Mini too. They're almost a prerequisite.
And if you are getting a new Mini, make sure that you have a black roof if you're having a panoramic sunroof. Sunroofs don't show up that much with black roofs as they do with the other colours. So my choice would be a red Clubman, black wheels and with a black roof. And spotlights too :-))...
Oh! By the way. The first "hot hatch" I can ever recall having 150bhp was the 1988 Vauxhall Astra GTE 16V. And that had 154bhp driving just the front wheels. Car reviewers then, said it was going to be far too powerful to handle. How times change!!
However, it's been fun watching the JCW Clubman. So, so sad to see her go... :-((...
PS - I forgot this. By the end of the year, new Mini's should be getting LCD screens to replace the mechanical dials :-))... So I'm led to believe!!
Oscar invite is in the post 😂
Wow by the end of the year you could, maybe, possibly, have a remote chance, of being on the cusp of having 3 yes THREE Mini cars! Thats proper love lol. I'm of those that just doesn't quite get them, but I've never driven one either.
Love your honesty though Pete and love your channel. Your obviously doing well, but your within the realms of relatable and your thoughts and reviews reflect this.
Oh and just have to say your end/credit music sounds just like Emirates onboard music. Every time I here it, it takes me back to my honeymoon which was via Business class too. Never have the money to do it again, but glad I did!
Didn't know about Emirates...that made my smile 😜
I purchased a 2015 R60 that was in "like new" condition last June. It made me smile from the getgo. The extra 100+ horsepower of the JCW would definitely get me in trouble with the law which up to the present I have been able to avoid.
It’s nice but not R55 nice.
Oh crud, Petrol Ped. It's bad enough that I named my F56, Penelope and drive Suz nuts 24x7 with constant peeks out the window or cutsy comment about how much I love her, whether it's smoked Union Flag Tailights or red, and all to my misses' eye roll. Now, yep, you guessed it, I have to have a Mini Clubman JCW, especially living up here in New Hampshire with those twisty roads and bad winters. Yep, the finance calculators are chattering like a team of tabulating accountants. And it's your fault:-)
Sorry Bud. I am sure you will forgive me 😜😂😂
Petrol Ped Absolutely, and lovin’ these videos especially during current times. Mods have been fun, and this one was a fab car review. Appreciate the comment on the run flat tires too. I have wondered about those on my F56. It has Pirellis. Should I change them to the ones you mention in the Clubman vid when they wear out...which may not be long with the cornering I’m doing on the back roads😁
My Heart Bleeds for you;. I would be devastated if I lost the car of my Dreams.. 🎅
The Clubman is still waiting for you should you change your mind, it now done 600 miles, WoW!
Excellent review. Robert De Niro better watch out. Tremendous acting at the start of the video.
LOL...Oscar worthy 😂
I knew you'd be hooked on the Clubman lol, Minis give more smiles per miles than any other car I've driven. My 2005 R53 supercharged baby is expensive to run it's getting old, like me but I wouldn't swap it for the world, whenever I'm grumpy which is a lot, if I jump in the car within seconds I'm smiling again. It's a pocket rocket that I can drive sensibly or rag the nuts off, and it always delivers. Take care mate 👍👍👍👍👍🏁
Cheers 👍
have you had any issues with the central console rebooting ? continually ?
Nope 👎
Really like these, but there are literally no decent deals to be had. The GFV to PCP one means the costs are eye watering... such a shame as it’s not a £6k £350/month motor for me...
Look at a 6 month old ex demo with maybe 2-3k miles. They are around £31-33k. I have already been offered a new build slot for £33k 👍
Petrol Ped yeah I’ll keep an eye on things, the dealer near me have only sold 1 of them because of the poor offers, so I’ll wait and see if anything comes good over the next few months
I always try to keep my cars as clean as possible, however I do find it interesting to see how a car gets dirty. By that I mean how the mud is thrown up onto the bodywork, how the aerodynamics affect the flow of grubby water and how the vacuums that all cars have to a degree affect how the dirty water settles on the car.
Me too. This one suffers from a dirty bum 😜😂
Mini could hire you as chief marketing officer :) This video convinced me as to what I’ll be doing by end of this year :))
Put it this way I have a good relationship with Mini 😜😂
Here to moan about the dirty car..
I thought you would sniff big time pal. You have to do what makes you both happy.
Fantastic review! Has been a blast watching you fall for the clubman. I’ve never wanted a mini tell u started doing videos of this clubman! With my little family it would be a good option.
Cheers Colton 👍
Just picked up a '2020 Clubman S myself. Not the 300 horsepower engine but it does have extras like the glass roof, wireless phone charger and the bigger LCD. Very fun car to drive.
Very nice. Congrats 👏
Petrol Ped are you interested in the Clubman JCW 306 hp which has to go? As I listed in previous comments.
You really want to sell it 😂
Yes it has to go, I would love it to go to another mini enthusiast, if the price is right!
So Petrol Ped and his better half were so smitten with the JCW Clubman that they went and spent their own money on one.
Good to see a committed honest RUclipsr, who does a peoples review and not a here today gone tomorrow OTT BS merchant.
Enjoy your ownership ,fun and practicality. What will be next in a couple of years time Audi RS4 or RS 6 demo or used low mileage, a thinking couples purchase.
I wish the JCW Symbol on the Steering wheel was a heated steering wheel button.
Navigation plus pack will give you wireless charging in the arm rest. This demo only has standard nav pack 👍
Another great video Pete. Fully get what you say about mini’s putting a smile on you’re face, we have a mini one as a family pool car and there is always a rush for the keys. You are right about the spot lights too, JCW’s should have them as standard.
Cheers Gary 👍
Great video. It’s a shame for me, that the GP is so hard core. A JCW all wheel drive three door hatch would be my choice. as long as I could have silver wheels.
That would be awesome 👏
I would love you to be the next owner of my Clubman 306hp JCW, You said you wanted to buy one and this one is absolute perfection with every extra.
I would only buy from a main dealer 😪
@@PetrolPed So sorry to hear that, you are missing out on a great deal and such a fantastic motor,
Hi Petrol Ped, So sorry you have to say goodby to the Mini Clubman, Just to say Ive got a three month old Clubman JCW 306 hp with all the bells and whistles just what you are looking for, only 500 miles sitting in my garage, Interested?
Don't temp me ! Why do you want to get rid ?
@@PetrolPed Its just a fantastic motor, its such a shame due to health reasons I cant drive it. I would like it to go to someone like myself who loves minis, its got every available extra, sun roof, 19in wheels etc.etc. Like you I to am a IAM driver so it has been treated with love.
Can I tempt you ?
Spec the 19"wheels and you can't have the adaptive suspension. I am keen to test drive one, never had a mini. Those rear doors though could be an issue.
Another great vid! I always find 3 months is the love it or loose it stage in car ownership.
Good point 👍
I misheard and thought you said the boot wasn't as big as your escort so i thought it must be tiny then!
....but then I realised you were saying S4 which obviously has a cavernous boot and makes much more sense! Haha
Love the car BTW. I agree that those gas struts on the rear doors are way too over-assistive; I bet the doors aren't that heavy and would be completely fine without them!
LOL 😂
Ped I enjoyed watching your videos on the mini. I also have a 2010 cooper a and I also have the mini bug. The brand is just so dam good
I agree 👍
The door mud issue is poor design. Got a Countryman 2.0 diesel.. great car, amazing auto gearbox cannot fault it except for tall drivers I bang my head getting in.. due to low roof line and also cannot read head up display as too low down.
I just got an F56 and of all the things the stuck out to me it was the absolutely shocking quality of the carpet. Horrific. Compared to the R50 generation which actually used real carpet - wtf are BMW playing at. Refined and well built car for certain but why the cost cutting? Disappointing.
I've got a great coffee maker. A mug, sugar, water, sainsburys own & a spoon. I don't need a fancy (and no doubt expensive) machine.
Great vLog... Should have one later this year... Will be keeping my 2015 JCW F56 as a mistress! This is the confirmation I wanted to see. Most dealer don't have them instock... Think apart from the demo's they are made to order as most are jumping in the Countryman from bigger SUV's
Well. Glad you’ve found your soul car.
So what if it was a manual with fwd only? Would you still buy it?
Yep 👍
You can see the progress in your presenting and story telling to make this a truly entertaining video. Loved the start clever way of introducing the story of the clubby, your videos are going from good car reviews to fantastic entertainment with a car theme (very like the grand tour and top gear) well done on the 50k as well
Thank you mate. Very kind of you to say 🙏
Beginning to see what you mean. We just bought a Countryman Cooper S 2.0. And it’s very good 🙂
I have a 2019 jcw stick shift, probably the last generation of manual MINIs. I was wondering if you could do a video where you do an ECU tune with one? I would love to do one but dont want to stray too far from stock, so need to see one that I know is stable.
I have...

Enjoy 👍
@@PetrolPed Wow! How did I miss that! Thanks
Took delivery of a Clubman JCW two months / 3,000 miles ago and we're also really impressed. Still don't see many around. Not kerbed the 19" alloys yet (fingers crossed..!) but the ride on uneven and poorly surfaced road is very harsh. (Hey, but who wants a soft suspension with 306ps?) On a smooth road it's great fun and love the noise from the exhaust. Fantastic build quality, great styling, plenty of oomph and a nice to have something a little different to other hot hatches.... totally agree with your comments in the video - we love it!
So happy you cancelled the Mini I watched the Niro experience & fully agree with your comments it's all down to a good range & a simple credit card charging system. Pete, I'm a petrol head motorbike rider luckily electric motorbikes will never be the same experience, unfortunately, Ev cars are better than ice cars so the writing is on the wall. Thanks for all the videos. Frank.
Hallo Pete, You have made me Crazzy about the Clubman JCW. Went to the car dealer to look for one. Zilver White is the color I want. I see you had the same choice. I prefere only a black roof, decalls. Can not wait to see more of your Ruby 2 . Have funnnn.
Tell you what you can do, email Mini Press Office to thank them again. And ask how old Press cars are when sold off. Then you'll know to look out for that one. Or if flexible, get this: www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/202001156193919?make=MINI&fuel-type=Petrol&transmission=Automatic&postcode=la80ja&radius=1500&model=CLUBMAN&onesearchad=New&onesearchad=Nearly%20New&onesearchad=Used&keywords=JCW&sort=price-asc&advertising-location=at_cars&year-from=2018&page=1
Oh your Roadster traded in worth £8500, or private ad about £9600 if helps.
Are they that good mate compared to the mini 3 doorjcw
Yep 👍
All4 and more power makes the difference 👍
I really Like this mini cooper club wagon with 306 HP but until they give It a six speed Manual Transmission I won't buy It. I Like to change my own gears.
How does it compare to other hot hatches? Civic Type R/ Golf R/A45. Which has the best driving dynamics and overall usability. I had a first gen JCW clubman and might want to get another.
Closest to the Golf R 👍
PP Ive got this wonderful Clubman JCW 306hp sitting in my garage with your name on it. you will fall in love with it. Only 500miles.
Nice, but not £40k nice. Especially with a face only a mother could love!!
The diamond cut 19s are also worse for road noise and harsher ride. I’ve got them on my clubman cooper S with JCW pack.
Great video mate, really enjoyed! One question though as you touched on finance and being a normal consumer, would you part with the considerable investment from your own hard-earned to own? I ask mainly because I feel the GP3 is troubling you? Cheers from Australia.
I don't think it's really picky to point out the flaws , the stones stuck in the vent is a real fail ! Also the leaves ... It wouldn't cost much at the factory to fit a mesh that prevents the leaves blocking it up.
Yes it has to go, I would love it to go to another mini enthusiast, if the price is right!
Great Stuff from the clubman I will be buying a countryman jcw soon. I rest drive it and really liked it's personality
/super vid!-I had to do a recap on this and watch it again! so sad to see the beast go! where do we buy your merchandise?
Hi There. All my merch can be found here…

@@PetrolPed Cool thanks ! keep up the channel its ace!
Thanks Richard. Chuffed you like it 👍
I am 75 yoa and have owned more cars than I can recollect, more recently and in the last two years I had an extremely fast Cooper S, I wanted to trade it for a high end Countryman JCW and was told it would be three months delivery which was eventually extended by months and on into more than a year, I purchased a nice BMW instead, however, the need for the Mini never left me and I pick up my new Countryman JCW on Monday 9th January. I also had an X5 M Competition (Ultimate Pack) which I ran for a year before trading it in for a more moderate 3ltr X5. I have driven a JCW some time ago and simply loved it and I am looking forward to Monday when I will pick up my new one.
Nice 👌
Great video, really enjoyed the format, felt ur enthusiasm for the car and told a fun to watch story 👍
Thanks Edward 👍
First car was a 995cc Mini City.....32 years ago. Next car WILL BE a Clubman. Great shout on the spot-lamps and roof rails. By the end of 2020, Ruby will have a GP3 for a boyfriend, and JCW Clubman for a big brother - lucky girl.
Highly likely 👍
Im about to order me a JCW Clubman all4 but i cant decide on colour... Love the british racing green, but i dont know... It remindes me of christmas LOL..
And my other option is Blue with black stripes and roof..
Or maybe white with red roof.... AAAAGH! Cant decide.....
Rebel Green like this one is cool but Silver and Red also looks great. Enigmatic Black with Red is one to look at. It almost looks dark blue 👏👌
I hate it when I leave something in my second or third home.
LOL...first world problems. Didn't mean to come across as such a dick 😬😂
@@PetrolPed I think you misunderstood his comment. He was hinting that you should have a power washer at both homes. Problem solved. ;-)
you need to work on that
Petrol Ped You didn’t mate. Just thought of the joke. If you have earned it, fair play sir.
(Scottish accent needed) - She's a GRINDER!!! ruclips.net/video/MOazlKsvA5A/видео.html
There are some cars you just fall in love with, mine was an Infiniti Q50 AWD 3.5L Hybrid Sport
NOT so Mini.
Wireless charging in the arm-rest in my 68 Clubman ✌️
It is an option not fitted to this press car 😪
I have this mini in blackpool just done 7000 miles its this car same reg number! From lloyds unreal 🚗 🚘
If the clubby has gone, you must be getting one of the first GP3s!!! I can’t wait to hear what you think 😬😀
There's a product called waterless wash that allows you to clean the car without needing a hose. You have one of the best detailing guys in your backyard, well not sure how far away he is, but look up Forensic Detailing, he'll steer you right, plus he's a gearhead too📣🛎👍
I'll take a look 👍
Awesome video and review ! Reassuring to know that you are not going to get a JCW Clubman just to create RUclips content but when your ready, this is what makes you channel stand out from the others.......just honest & genuine., one of the best channels out there. Are those mugs becoming available to buy ?
I have had a few people ask about the mugs. That one was a present but could get some made 👍
What year is this clubman?
2019 👍
My wife recently got her 2020 Mini"S" convertible and for a vehicle with a 40k price point I am amazed that it doesn't have power seats.and that the tires are Nitrogen filled which do not last as long as normal tires and cost around $200 + to replace should they go bad. Yes I agree there should a dedicated spot for your cell phone with a charging pad. The Convertible does have a 2 step roof, the first step is a panorama version of a roof window and then the second step takes the top down completely. Pretty cool! great driving car, lots of fun, room for 4 but wouldn't recommend 4 adults going on a longer than a 2 hour road trip.Love the cornering headlights and the Union Jack tail lights. The heads up display is awesome as is the entire audio/navigation system. Also it is recommended to use the PLUS grade of gas which runs about $0.30-0.50 /per gallon more here in NJ. Overall its a great car and maybe they will add the features missing in future models.
Thanks for this Alan 👍
OK, here I am 3 years later, watching this video (again) and finally understanding why you liked this car as much as you did. Because... I am getting almost the exact same car for myself this week! My test drive yesterday of a used 2020 Clubman JCW with barely 17K miles on it convinced me that I have to stop moping about and start 'motoring' about. It is time for me to pull the trigger (because I finally have the $$$) and put some real joy into my driving. And when I say almost the exact same car, I mean the same model, same exact color scheme, but with the wireless charging yours didn't have, it has the panoramic moon roof, and it's the American version so it has the steering wheel on the proper side. 😆 I knew when I saw it I needed it in my life, but I wasn't quite sure why it stuck out as much as it did. But rewatching this video, and I get it. Thanks to you, @PetrolPed for planting the seed in my brain.
That’s great to hear. I’m sure you will love the new car 👍
what is a better car? the mini S or the JCW?
Doug Macrae Depends what you want to do. If it’s a Clubman, this JCW is heaps better that the Cooper s clubman-it’s a totally different very well sorted car (I have driven both).
If it’s a Hatch and you drive gently, then the Cooper s will do everything you need. The JCW hatch is much more lively and less comfortable around town even with adaptive dampers.
This new JCW has had a reworked suspension to handle the 306hp and it all works very well indeed, it’s a stunningly good car.
The S is a brilliant car, but the JCW with All4 four wheel drive just makes it epic 👏
I know just how you feel. I tried to part ex my mini (Laddie) and I couldn’t and I purchased the car 🚗 with out a part ex. So I still have him outside. I had a Mini Countryman on Motability a Cooper S fully loaded. Then PIP changed my entitlement and Cooper had to go back but, at some point I’ll have one back. I’m hooked on Minis period and all though I’ve just bought a Meriva just to get me through the next 3 years or so I will have two minis again. Laddie is very cheap to run, zero tax and only £160 on insurance it’s not worth worrying about. Laddie is a Cooper D with racing parents on him. This makes the clutch a touch hard to press for me, so I can’t driving him as much as I’d love too. So chin up Pete and to your wife and look to the future, there’s a Mini waiting for you both 💋
Thanks for this Amanda👍
Mr Petrol Ped, I'm a little older than you, and far wiser. Having owned as my first car a proper 1966 Cooper S, I find the new BMW Mini neither 'Mini' or 'fun.' You simply might as well buy a better mid-size car than this over stylized, plasticy, repair prone interloper. The genuine essence of the original Mini has been lost with size and weight.
I can appreciate both Classic and Modern Minis. I’ve driven plenty of both 😜
Great start to the vid Pete congratulations on the 50k subs!!
Thanks Andrew 🙏
I have a Cooper S Countryman, almost three year old now! It’s good fun to drive after many years of company cars, the usual VWs and Audis. Hope your own car number plate, as seen in this clip, is a show plate, as the characters are mis-spaced!
My plate has been like that for 15 years 😜
You're obviously as hooked on the Clubman as I am Pete. Mine does have the larger info screen, panoramic sun roof and the wireless charger in the armrest. The charger works great but anything larger than my Samsung S8 won't fit which could be an issue if you gotta have the latest phone! Doesn't bother me, to be honest. I am also in agreement with another comment re a Blazing Red (not the Chili one) Clubman with black roof coupled with the panoramic sunroof and black wheels, that describes my older Cooper version and it looked awesome!! Now all I need to do is save up for the JCW all4 version.......
Cheers Russ 👍
A 3 litre V6 turbo or 2 litre 4cyl turbo hummm, I know which id have Ped 😂😂😂.
There's more to cars than just an engine...
Love it.... We only have the CopperS Clubman and still adore it after 6 months and yes want spots.
I know the feeling.. realy have my eye on a mini but have to pay off a loan first plus my girlfriend thinks im nuts for being sso obsesed with mini coopers but as you say they get under your skin. looking at at 2018 jcw 17000 miles for 27000 dollars. but no one works on them where i live so would have to drive 50 miles to get work on it. hate driving in Minn MN. what are your thoughts. plse let me know. thanks
Get her to drive one...job done 😜
