A great little track day car; it can be pushed around all corners, without exhibiting too much oversteer. It handles like a Mini should, easy to drive, good acceleration, and it can take all the corners with ease. Enjoy.

There's really not much to say about this one. Just as I said for the JCW GP Mini, it's a good all-rounder (well maybe not blistering acceleration). Handling is good, no monstrous understeer or any of that nonsense, braking is good. Overall, a good beginners car.

This is my favorite of the bunch because I was able to make it more accurate than the others, finding the specs on the Mini Official Website. Yes, the weight distribution really is 62/38, but it actually translates to pretty good handling; my favorite to drive. Just don't, whatever you do, drive it in the rain. But if you keep it in the dry, it'll treat you right. Enjoy.
