CHEEKY MINI JCW IS A TRIPLE THREAT THAT'S SURE TO PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE

GOOD LOOKS, POWER AND PERSONALITY...

THE Mini has grown a reputation for being "not so Mini" ever since BMW took over in the early 2000s.

Now in its fourth generation, the latest offering promises to bring back some of the original car's fun factor with a futuristic yet retro-styled interior and go-kart-like handling.

But, what if you want more power? Well, the Mini John Cooper Works has just received the full-blooded JCW treatment.

WHAT'S NEW?

The name "John Cooper Works" is the pinnacle when it comes to Minis and this latest version continues to follow the footsteps of its ancestors.

There is more power, an increase in performance and it features the same fun and fresh interior design.

There are lots of sustainable materials and several driving modes to make this new Mini one of the most entertaining cars on the road.

It comes as standard in a sportier three-door body style as well as a lot of exterior enhancements to make it stand out.

WHAT'S UNDER THE BONNET?

Powering the car is the same 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder unit you'll find in the Cooper S.
