What a refreshing video, in a world of "Archie Hamilton" style videos. Mega. And credit to that Philippa girl for re-wiring her own house.
Do more of these videos.
Never been a fan of the mini, but at the car show here in Brussels the JCW did hit a soft spot with me. Very much enjoying your New series, ‘a girls guide to’, you found a Nice little slot in the ‘car scene’, and you don’t make it to ‘Girly’, that wouldn’t suite your character anyway. Keep up the good work! Your editing has also grown significantly :)
Such an underrated channel, it such different content and insightful information, keep it up! ✌️
I’ve only recently subscribed to your channel and it was great to watch this vlog. I started as an apprentice and am now engineering through many years of learning and gaining qualifications. So proud to see those apprentices learning their trade.
All good Queen B.
First off compliments on your vid production quality. You got my attention for all the right reasons-AND you actually know what your talking about. I live in N. Italy 🇮🇹 (American 🇺🇸) and love ❤️ cars. Thanks for your great work~ Matt
Great video....I live in oxford and know loads of people who’ve done the apprenticeships,one good friend did one six years ago now earns over £70k there and there car scheme is great too....
daveybaby10 yeah I’m a oxford boy, my dad used to work there, my uncle also owns a mini gp2
daveybaby10 also when it was Morris my grandad used to work there
Looks like a neat car for a college student or other young person. But I think your friend is going to want something more like an s4.
AntBear13 needs to be a bmw or mini to get one on there car scheme,it’s great for young people as for £200 pcm you get a new Mini Cooper and it’s taxed and insured.....if your under 30 that’s a amazing chance to drive something nice
200 pounds a month to drive that car .... that’s a hell of a deal! In America you’d be looking at $600-800 a month, even for a lease for it with the insurance.
Well Done Queen B ! I thought this video was going to be an evaluation of a JCW Mini, but you delivered so much more. Skill training opportunities, plus the value of a technical education for all, does so much to empower the youth of today .
Great video I really enjoyed it well done! Having owned two Abarth’s (one 2010 500, one 2016 180 comp) the F56 is a totally different sort of car. Much much more refined, which probably leads to some of the feeling of it not being so quick. Which the JCW still very much is! Enjoyed looking round the factory 👍
two minutes into this video, and I looked at your subscriber box... the quality and effort of this video deserves more than 37,000subs!!!!
I feel the Mini John Cooper Works could be more raw. Like Abarth 595 is to the Fiat 500.
Great video and hopefully inspiring for some possible apprentices. Maybe try a Golf R sometime - it'd be interesting to see what you thought
One of your best videos yet! Keep up the good work with creating unique content.
Bit late to the show here, I had one for a year in 2017 and get it remapped and changed the run flats. 297bhp and added that little bit extra! Great content.
She echoes my thoughts on the mini and that’s why I also bought the Abarth 595 Competizione. Great fun little car and loads of personality
Idiot
P.S - it'll leave the Abarth before it has a chance to get up for breakfast, especially in corners lol
Good informative video again bek. You’re probably the most clued up vlogger in terms of actual spec talk. STG and SCHMEE also fall in this category.
Keep them coming girl.
I only discovered you Bex whilst you have been in Ireland during lockdown bug since then and hearing you mention Drift Queen, so I binge watched that and now this; such a fantastic, informative video. Really enjoyed it.
Great review and great use of the word “bulbous” 🙌🏼
I got a new 210 last year and after driving it for a couple of weeks I came to the same conclusion, so decided to get the engine remapped. At 297bhp whilst not hectic, it does feel much better.
Twin turbo or TwinPower turbo?
Jeremy Wideman twinpower, it has 1 twin scroll turbo
Yes single twin power turbski
What a superb video! Great to see the inside of the factory and get an insight into the apprentice section at Mini. Also love the honesty about the JCW and how it didn't quite live up to your perceived expectation. Doesn't mean it's a bad car, just not what you'd think. Thanks for sharing!
SHE IS A BEAUTY! THE GIRL AND THE MINI!
미니 생산라인에 직접 들어가셔서 작업자 분들과 인터뷰 하는 장면이 친밀감 불러 일으키는 신선한 느낌으로 다가 옵니다. 이런 아이디어 좋아요. 🙂
if you can, take out a Toyota Celica t-sport or celica gt. That vvtL-i engine is amazing and puts out 190 bhp and can do 0-60 in around 6.8-7.8 seconds
danny booth slow
Darling can You Please Do a Review of the Classic Mini Cooper.
Loved this video. Really interesting content and something not many people cover. Awesome work 👍🏻
You're a welcome change. Love your content.
You just need to do more!!
I am literally melting down, seeing becka, talking, and just explaining how and what she likes !
This is a fantastic video. Proud of these girls.
Girl power 💪 good to see women in the industry
i owned a 2017 JCW convertible for about a year here in sunny california. It was fun, but I agree it's a bit too tamed and composed. And the steering a bit too dead. It's almost there tho. I think it should just have standard the JCW special exhaust and maybe a chip to get 30-40hp more.
0:07 Sorry - Monsta Boy. I love that song.
No, the song is not actually playing in the video, it´s just playing in her car.
Subbed...I ordered the LCI/Facelift and it's due end of this month. This got me even more excited about it 👏🏼
Great video, was awesome to see you being last of the late brakers in your 595 Abarth today at Llandow. :)
A Mini JCW burped and farted in front of me just this morning! little rascal!
Brilliant video. Great to publicize these amazing schemes.Good luck to all the apprentices
Liked before watching🙏☺️
Really liked the video, great to see apprenticeships working in a top brand car manufacturer
Really interesting video! Excellent to see how well the apprenticeships are running. Well done BMW / Mini
I get what you're saying. The current gen Mini's are to big and 'safe' My favourite Mini has to be the 1st Gen R53. They are just so raw and nimble to drive. It feels how a mini should.
Great video. The one thing i dont like about these new mins is that the speedo is not in the middle which it should be in a mini. Other than that minis are brilliant. Also its great to see how people work in the factory
Wonderful information for engineering students! Great questions and great episode!
Whattt!! I was just looking and thinking about the cooper s and r56 (facelift)mini's , thanks for the review on this
Great Vid Queen B. Know exactly what you mean about the JCW. I drive one as my daily and I thought I’d lacked the manic fel. I have now had a Schnitzer engine and suspension tune. It’s like a different car now. Goes round corners like it’s on rails and the power to go with it. Thinking of doing this to my M2.
Great video QB. You really have something that will get better with more life experience. Hope someone in TV notices you.
Yep I've got to give you credit where it's due ...nice one xxx
Great vid... excellent understanding...
Its not just the car that looks gorgeous
The Mini's biggest draw back is that it isn't very "mini".
The Fiesta ST is much closer to the original concept than the current genuine Mini.
The JCW is very nice, but doesn't float my boat. Not even close to the Abarth.
But the overview was very nice to watch, and the factory visit was really interesting.. Thanks for that. 👌
Nice pocket rocket especially with a manual box. Can’t beat my analogue R53 JCW tho 😆
Great video Becky, great at raising awareness for apprenticeships, a great training ground for engineering, well done. JK
good video and insight of the mini. queenb always uts out good vid's and shes very pleasant on the eye ha
The spark of excitement is missing, I agree
Seriously thinking of getting one of these little feckers next. Body design really puts me off dough.
"I am enjoying myself, but I don't know if I like it" 😂😂 Go try a GP3 if you can get your hands on one.
Great light of guidance is in your content.
Find a decent R53 JCW and give that a flip around some B roads and see what you think.
New video
Love your reviews keep up the good work
Amazing review ! Thank you
LOVE it!!!😀 -but in Denmark it is 56.000 Pounds!!!🤥
Isn't that Joe Achilies loaner mini form berry mini?
I would not buy the mini as a town car. I like the way it looks and the fact that I can customize it the way I want it. I want a three tone paint job and I want stripes. I also like the toggle switches and the interior in general. I only drive in town; never in the country, and we don't have curvy roads here. For me it's all about style and appearance. When I walk out the house everyday, I want to see a car that makes me feel good and happy I bought it. Right now I drive a Civic: a car that looks like every other car on the road. A great car to drive, but that's about it.
The F56 isnt a mini anymore. You have to drive a R56 or even better R53. There are little gokarts and real fun
Great video with honest, individual words and critics towards the product. But lets be honest, perhaps 80% of owners of this copy does not even know what JCW really depicts! Sound system? There was only one sound system in the 60's, and that was coming from the engine bay!!
Беки тебе надо ехать в Красноярск, познакомиться с маней и Катей набойченко и выступить с ними в команде бабий дрифт)
Well now, first at the very least clean your windows! Brakes not big enough? Have you taken a look at them, they are huge and powerful. Tourquey engine? How about max torque at 1250 revs in a flat line rough up to around 6,000 revs-so useable.
I drive a JCW and it’s an amazing car, good and flexible to be a comfy daily driver, and awesome in sport mode and driven well.
Sorry I couldn’t watch all of this vid. I know it wasn’t just a car review, but at least give it some proper thought.
I’m gonna go for a drive in my JCW now to calm down😊
Monty Zumazoom plus if it’s not powerful enough for her..... get a Powerchip and she’d have 295hp .....🤔
and no engine left after a while
Monty Zumazoom Hope you had a long lie down then. You sound like a salty little bitch. Arsehole!
How does the JCW compare to your 595 Comp? Will you make a vid for your 595 Comp?
World class graduate programme for sure, why would anyone not want to work at the Oxford MINI plant.
I bought my first Mini in 2004 brand new and loved it. Exchanged it for a brand new one in 2008 which was the biggest mistake ever. I hated it. Horrible car. Not a Mini at all. My mistake for not taking it for a test drive first. It felt big, heavy, cheap inside, plastic cheap feeling to It, didn't corner very well, just didn't drive like a Mini anymore. Had it for 4 months before I sold it. Stayed away from Mini until April 2017 when I treated myself to a 2005 Mini Cooper. Love it. Needs some tlc but love it. So far I have added a performance exhaust, replaced the half leather seats for full leather sports seats, new breaks pads all round, and just today several hundred pounds worth of work to the engine that was needed. It's a lovely car though. These new Minis and not mini's. Bloody horrible cars to drive and horrible to look at inside although they do look great on the outside.
sounds like you need to try the GP
gotta get queen b to 100,000
Truly excellent video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Awesome vid!
1:16 its not a twin turbo, it had 1 twin scroll turbo
Shame the mini production will be leaving the UK so those apprenticeship opportunities will cease
Go back and drive an R53 (JCW) A Massive difference in "Character" before it became domesticated...
I'm from Oxford and work at the Mini Plant lol
Girl, that is not twin turbo. Twin scroll (=bmw - twinpower).
You need to lower the steering column it's not slav enough for you, you're not a 6 foot chav
nice sharing car..
Why mini have transmission problems all mini cars
Sabine out, Queen B in on Top Gear!
Twin turbo? or twin power turbo?
Twin Scroll Turbo*
Great insight into the factory Academy Becky 👍
It’s been a minute since you posted something. Hope you’re good
It’s not a twin turbo, it’s a twin scroll turbo
very good video
can't find one in u.s. under 40k dollars...
It's not a twin turbo, there is only one !!
Sadly i hate the mini. Hatw is too strong, i don't understand the love for them.
For me, It works only on country roads. Its really fun. However in town, where most middle class women drive them, the steering is far too heavy making the car feel huge in town, making it a shit town car. Also on the motorway the old 5 speed was horrible. Loud, not in a nice way, and to stiff for a longer trip.
But in the lanes, and probably on track, they handle great . sadly for me i don't think they work anywhere else. And i won't mention the option costs on the things.
They do look the part tho.
Great to see all these young women making Minis. Cars aren't just a "guy thing!"
What will happen to this great factory and all the people after Brexit? ?????
the r56 is far superior to the f56
And your accent makes me smile 😜 Sorry had to be said~carry on!-)
@QueenB,you should start daily vlogging
Great report should replace Harris on tg however you should review an actual Cooper not a fake German 1
As a huge MINI Fanboy i completely agree! I‘m driving a 2006 R53 JCW and tested both the R56 (not as puristic but also nice) as well as the the new F56. Sorry, this isn‘t a MINI at all. I was completely dissapointed how this „MINI“ feels. No soul, absolutely synthetic feeling and bulky look (and feel...). Sorry BMW, thats a car built for commercial success, not for fans :-(
