MINI Cooper review: The perfect small car?
Sell your car for free with Carwow: https://bit.ly/Sell-Your-Car-For-Free-0808 This is the new MINI Cooper! It’s available as either a petrol or electric car, and we’ve got our hands on the electric car for this review. The question is, when it comes to compact cars, is this one of the best you can buy in 2024? For starters, let’s check out the design. From the outside, it is unmistakable as a MINI. There are three trim levels available, and we’ve got our hands on the top-spec Sport edition. This means it comes with an aggressive front bumper, black tone detailing, side skirts, and a large (but fake) rear diffuser. Step inside and the new MINI is a nice place to sit. The main feature of the interior is the large circular infotainment screen in the centre of the dash. The majority of the car's functions are housed here, including the climate controls, but unfortunately, it’s not the most responsive system. Elsewhere in the cabin, there are well-designed, recycled materials on the dash, but in lower-down spots, there’s a fair bit of plastic material. Thankfully though, the seats are super comfortable. Given we’ve got the electric edition, it’s only available as a three-door. If you want a five-door MINI, you’ll need to choose the petrol car! There are two versions of the electric MINI available. The entry-level is the Cooper E, which comes with a 37kWh battery that can produce 184hp and 190 miles of range. The other edition is the Cooper SE, which has a 49kWh battery, 218hp and 250 miles of range. If you choose the petrol car, the entry-level has a 1.5-litre 3-cylinder turbo that can produce 156hp, or there’s a 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo petrol that can put down 204hp. All MINIs are front-wheel drive, and they’re all automatic! The petrol-powered MINI starts at £23,000, while the electric edition starts at around £30,000. However, the price can rise by a lot - the top-of-the-range car we have here costs over £42,000!! So is it worth it? You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

2025 Range Rover Sport SV - Fast Luxury SUV in Detail
2025 Land Rover Range Rover Sport SV 4.4 AT MHEV iAWD - Sound, Interior and Exterior Design in Detail. Subscribe. Special thanks to: https://www.instagram.com/jlr_lviv/ Watch This Next: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D52iODMu8G8&list=UULFgV6iVN6IdBvGXD3tqoUmKA The Range Rover Sport SV is the most powerful and dynamic Range Rover Sport to date, combining high performance with the hallmark refinement and design of Range Rover. Featuring advanced performance technology, it includes a suspension system built for ultimate control and a sensory audio setup with wellness-enhancing features. The Range Rover Sport SV is powered by a 4.4-litre Twin-Turbo MHEV V8 engine, producing 635 PS (467 kW) at 6,000-7,000 rpm and 750 Nm of torque from 1,800-5,855 rpm—a power boost over the previous 5.0-litre V8. This setup enables the SV to accelerate from 0-100 km/h (0-60 mph) in 3.8 seconds (3.6 seconds with Dynamic Launch), with a top speed of 290 km/h (180 mph). Aided by innovations such as 23-inch Carbon Fibre Wheels (a world first on a production vehicle), Carbon Ceramic Brakes, and standard aerodynamic upgrades, it saves up to 76 kg in weight. Reflecting Range Rover’s modern luxury, the Range Rover Sport SV is initially available only to select clients through an invitation-only SV EDITION ONE. This exclusive edition combines premium features, colors, and finishes, with custom branding on the front splitter, center console, treadplates, and puddle lamps. Technical Specifications for the Range Rover Sport SV P635: Transmission: Automatic Driveline: All-Wheel Drive (AWD) Engine capacity: 4,395 cc Cylinders/Valves: 8 / 4, arranged longitudinally Bore/Stroke: 89 mm / 88.3 mm Compression ratio: 10.5:1 WLTP Fuel Consumption (l/100 km, mpg) Low: 19.7-20.3 (14.4-13.9) Medium: 11.4-12.2 (24.8-23.2) High: 9.7-10.4 (29.2-27.3) Extra High: 10.8-11.5 (26.3-24.6) Combined: 11.7-12.5 (24.1-22.7) Fuel Tank Capacity: 90 liters The Range Rover Sport SV rides 10-25 mm lower than other Range Rover Sport models, depending on the selected drive mode, with its 6D Dynamics suspension paired with advanced chassis and suspension systems. Custom SV-tuned settings are applied to All-Wheel Steering and Torque Vectoring by Braking, delivering a sportier feel, especially in the new SV Mode. Brakes Front brakes: Ventilated disc, diameter 420 mm (440 mm optional) Rear brakes: Ventilated disc, diameter 390 mm Parking brake: Electric Park Brake (EPB) integrated into the brake caliper Wheels and Towing Unladen Weight (EU): 2,560 kg; DIN: 2,485 kg Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW): 3,250 kg Towing Capacity: Maximum towing of 3,500 kg, unbraked trailer 750 kg, with a max vehicle and trailer combination weight of 6,750 kg Maximum Roof Load: 100 kg, including cross bars For enhanced traction, 305-section rear tires—20 mm wider than the 285-section front tires—paired with Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires provide a rear-biased setup that improves grip, stability, and steering response, allowing the Range Rover Sport SV to achieve over 1.1G of lateral acceleration on all-season tires, rivaling track-oriented sports cars. The Carbon Ceramic Brakes reduce unsprung weight by 34 kg compared to standard iron brake discs, contributing to improved responsiveness. The braking system features eight-piston Brembo Octyma front calipers with a unique cross-piston arrangement, available in custom colors like Yellow, Red, Carbon Bronze, and Black. The optional 23-inch Carbon Fibre Wheels, a first for any production vehicle, reduce weight by almost 9 kg per corner, enhancing handling and ride quality while meeting rigorous Range Rover durability standards. Drivers can activate SV Mode to elevate the vehicle’s dynamic capabilities, optimizing steering, transmission, throttle, exhaust note, and 6D Dynamics suspension, lowering the vehicle by an additional 15 mm. SV Mode also activates the TracDSC stability control, allowing the driver to fully explore the vehicle’s balance and agility. Inside, the Range Rover Sport SV debuts the Body and Soul Seat (BASS) system, providing a tactile audio experience from SUBPAC™ that allows front-seat occupants to feel the music. This is paired with the 29-speaker, 1430W Meridian Signature Sound System and features wellness programs designed to promote relaxation by enhancing heart rate variability (HRV). The Price of the 2025 Land Rover Range Rover Sport SV is expected to start at $180,000 USD and can reach up to $200,000 USD depending on trim and options.

FIRST LOOK: Tuthill GT ONE – Road Legal '90s Le Mans Car!
The Tuthill GT One is a sensational street legal tribute to 1990s Le Mans racing, and only 22 of these all-carbon GT1 homages will be built. Cooler than a GT1 Strassenversion? Possibly. It’s street legal, and for what’s almost certainly a seven-figure sum, you can have one of the few examples that Tuthill plans to make. But there are a couple of critical options you must choose between – namely, do you want a seven-speed twin-clutch gearbox, or a six-speed manual? A 4.0-litre naturally aspirated flat-six related to the 911K’s screaming engine that develops around 500bhp? Or a twin-turbo version that kicks out more than 600bhp? Tuthill says the GT One was born out of a chat between company boss Richard Tuthill and one of his clients, Elliot Ross. What would a modern-day GT1 car look and drive like? Can it still be pretty while incorporating FIA-spec crash-worthiness and road legal measures? Apparently so. Very much so.
