I just read this article and am scratching my head... Is the JCW becoming just a decal / badge platform... Had to double check to see if it was an April fools joke, but it doesn't appear to be the case... I thought the JCW was supposed to be geared to the performance enthusiast... So the 4th gen ICE 2025 JCW will have a single piston brake caliper... Crazy times indeed... https://www.motoringfile.com/2025/04/13/exclusive-why-mini-downgraded-to-single-piston-brakes-on-the-2025-cooper-jcw/
Welp it's a performance upgrade alright. Those are moar lighter so less unsprung weight. Heck all one needs to do is add a set of fleaBay caliper covers and all is good.
This was a few years ago. But I was at a car lot in the helmet. A salesman was gushing over the Helmet then said “If they made that in a 4 door they would sale a lot of them” I said then it would not be the same car. Some people dont get it. The people running mini are clueless.
