Purpose

I will try my best to provide detailed info on various cars and what is like to live with them, I have already produced a few for Jaguar-car-forums, I will do my best to be unbiased, but it will be hard for some cars. I will re-produce press releases and copy from other motoring news.

MINI to attend the Moving Motor Show at Goodwood for the first time with the John Cooper Works.

The new MINI John Cooper Works is set to wow visitors to this year’s Goodwood Moving Motor Show this month, as MINI joins the event for the very first time.
Sporting the most powerful engine ever for a road-going MINI, show-goers will be able to experience the 231bhp John Cooper Works on the famous Goodwood Hillclimb route accompanied by a professional racing instructor.

In all, five John Cooper Works models will be in action on the famous Hillclimb course, a natural environment for the motor sport-inspired MINI to cater for the huge expected crowds at the show presented by the AA in association with The Telegraph.
The Moving Motor Show – Thursday 25th June – represents the first chance for UK drivers  to get behind the wheel of the powerful new MINI, which packs a 2.0-litre TwinPower Turbo engine as well as suspension, brake, aerodynamic and interior upgrades.
For those looking for an adrenalin rush within the confines of the MINI stand, a specially- designed simulator is being created to offer visitors a virtual taste of the hill climb route.
The latest incarnation of the MINI John Cooper Works delivers 10 per cent more power and 23 per cent more torque, enabling it to reach 62 mph in just 6.3 seconds when equipped with the standard six-speed manual gearbox or 6.1 seconds with the optional six-speed Steptronic sports ‘box.
MINI will also be out in force at the Goodwood Festival of Speed following the Moving Motor Show which runs until 28th June. MINI brand ambassador and contender for the Dakar Rally 2016 title – Harry Hunt – will be showcasing his talents on the Hillclimb across the festival weekend in his bespoke Rally Dakar MINI All4 Racing. Harry will be located on the MINI stand across the weekend and is available for interviews.*
Anyone interested in driving the most powerful MINI ever should visit the manufacturer’s stand in the Moving Motor Show pavillion.
