I'm always surprised when other folk are surprised when a 60yr old car is as competent as this. Probably 120hp, 500kgs, I'll let you do the maths on the power to weight compared to a Clio 200 there..


An entertaining watch, that's for sure! 😁

A friend of mine has a Z cars converted mini. It's running an R1 engine.

Brilliant Ed.

That made me smile the whole way through that, the driver certainly knew how to get the absolute most from the Mini.

As shown by his two wheeled skip over the kerb, I would have loved to see that in car footage 😁😁

I wonder how it compares to the really top level prepared Mini's you see at Goodwood?

It was bloody quick anyway.
