If you ever thought that a big motor was the secret to having a great time, getting behind the wheel of a Mini is bound to change your perspective on performance. The humble Mini is a testament to good things coming in small packages, and over the years, the small but mighty machine has helped transform the automotive world. While the plucky little British machine has changed ownership over the years, the essence of the original Mini hasn't been lost. Today's car represents the best of the Mini marque and looks like this lovely 2021 Mini Hardtop JCW GP. This particular example is number 997 out of 3,000 cars made. With a reported 13,100 miles on the clock, it's time you hit the track hard and looked good doing so.

Exterior and Interior

To commemorate the legendary John Cooper, this 2021 Mini Hardtop JCW GP sports a Racing Gray exterior with red accents, carbon fiber fender flares and unique JCW styling. The styling cues scream performance and look the part when you are out on track setting impressive lap times. The current owner reports a paint protection is in place to protect the exterior. In terms of shoes, this pocket rocket sits on its factory JCW wheels which are reportedly wrapped with new tires. While it's a track-focused weapon, this 2021 Mini Hardtop JCW GP and its two-tone black and grey interior boast a high-quality and unique feel. You have an infotainment system and seats that provide decent comfort. A glance at the rear and you would notice the absence of rear seats but a struct bar in place to save weight and improve handling.

Engine

Powering this 2021 Mini Hardtop JCW GP is a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder powertrain. The tweaked motor is good for a mighty impressive 301hp and is met by features like a more aggressive suspension setup and an electronic locking front differential to boast better handling. Power is sent to the car's front wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission, and Brembo brakes ensure this pocket rocket comes to a steady halt.
