How do you have a miserable time in a mini JCW?
Maybe I was being a bit harsh - I sold my previous T6 in March last year when I stupidly looked on webuyanyvan and was drawn in by the chance of making a ’profit’ - owned 2.5 years and sold it for a clear £5k more than I paid for it, plus got another £1500 from selling the wheels, swivel seats, table and a few other bits.
BUT,
a. the minute I walked away from webuyanyvan to the bus stop to get a ride home I regretted my decision.
b. I stupidly didn’t see that it wasn’t just vans that were commanding a covid premium, it was cars too so I ended up paying a couple of grand more than a pre covid price for the mini due to the shortage of used cars and being severely limited on choice.
The JCW was actually fun to drive, 231bhp on tap, 8 speed auto, sounded awesome when I fitted the JCW Pro valved exhaust too but it just wasn’t a Transporter and it was too small for a fat bloke and the weekly shopping let alone trying to have a picnic or a takeaway in it
