The latest Mini GP wasn't great - could a JCW prepped by racers be more the ticket?
. The focus for this special edition has instead been on the chassis, which seems appropriate for a car that celebrates doing so well on the Nordschleife. To that end it gets two-way adjustable KW V3 dampers, with a setup signed off by Bulldog’s pros on the ‘ring. There’s also a Remus exhaust to give the engine a bit more voice, and the rear seat has been removed, replaced by a strut brace and mesh. Which again seems fitting for a racy Mini, as all the GPs have been two seaters.
The wheel and tyre combo is interesting, handsome 17-inch OZ HyperGTs sat on Pirelli P Zero Performance rubber. It’s another link back to the racing car, as that used Pirelli tyres. The Bulldog racing Edition keeps the standard 205/45 R17 profile, and looks really good for it, the visual attitude coming from how the car sits on its suspension rather than having an arch filled of heavy alloy wheel.
The BRE will further be distinguished by a Bulldog Racing roof decor foil, as well as a limited edition badge. There’s also going to be a document to say when the suspension was set up on the Nordschleife , and what are being called ‘other discreet features’. Tell us if you spot them. Pretty cool, right? The fast Mini feels to have fallen out of favour somewhat of late, so it’s pleasing to have something proper return with a bit of motorsport kudos on top. There’s good news and bad news when it comes to availability. The bad is that this is a race team build, so getting one won’t be as easy as popping down to your local dealer and placing an order. Guarantees exclusivity, at least - interested parties are invited.
