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! Itās available as either a petrol or electric car, and weāve 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, letās check out the design. From the outside, it is unmistakable as a MINI. There are three trim levels available, and weāve 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, itās not the most responsive system. Elsewhere in the cabin, there are well-designed, recycled materials on the dash, but in lower-down spots, thereās a fair bit of plastic material. Thankfully though, the seats are super comfortable. Given weāve got the electric edition, itās only available as a three-door. If you want a five-door MINI, youāll 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 thereās a 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo petrol that can put down 204hp. All MINIs are front-wheel drive, and theyāre all automatic! The petrol-powered MINI starts at Ā£23,000, while the electric edition starts at around Ā£30,000. However, the price can rise by a lot - the top-of-the-range car we have here costs over Ā£42,000!! So is it worth it? Youāll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

FIRST LOOK: Porsche 911 GT3 ā Whatās New?
Not one but two new Porsche 911 GT3s are upon us, both a regular be-winged car and the more subtle Touring model. And for once, the headline news isnāt the power, the peak revs or the NĆ¼rburgring lap time, but how practical it is. Thatās right, because for the first time in the 25-year history of the GT3, itās being offered with back seats. Itās only for the Touring, but that addition alone will be enough to start The Internet chattering about whether this is āall the car youāll ever needā. However, if kids, or at least taking your kids with you, isnāt your thing, then worry not. The back seats are merely an option, and the non-Touring GT3 canāt be had with them at all. Plus, if youāre the sort of Porsche purest who hates weight, you can double down on that ethos with either a Weissach pack for the GT3 or a Leichtbau (aka Lightweight) pack for the Touring. As for what else is new (and there are a lot of detailed, GT3 RS-inspired changes) then join Top Gear Magazineās Associate Editor Tom Ford, for an in-depth walkaround of both new GT3s with Andreas Preuninger, Porscheās Director of GT Carsā¦ Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear WANT MORE TOP GEAR?

New Audi RS6 GT v R8 GT: DRAG RACE
Change your car with Carwow: https://bit.ly/Change-Your-Car-2010 Itās time for an epic Audi showdown! Weāve got Mat in the Audi R8 GT, and heās about to go head-to-head against an Audi RS6 GT! The question is, which of these extreme Audis will come out on top? Well, letās check out the stats. Starting with the RS6, itās powered by a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 that delivers 630hp and 850Nm of torque. This power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and the car weighs in at 2,075kg. As new, the RS6 GT had a price tag of Ā£177,000. Then we come to the R8. Itās packing a 5.2-litre naturally-aspirated V10 that can produce 620hp and 565Nm. This power is sent to the rear wheels only via a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox, and it tips the scales at 1,570kg. Itās a bit more expensive than the RS6, costing around Ā£200,000. So they both produce similar power, but while the RS6 may have four-wheel drive, itās half a tonne heavier than the R8! Will this prove decisive? Thereās only one way to find outā¦ LETāS RACE!

FIRST LOOK: Tuthill GT ONE ā 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. Itās street legal, and for whatās 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 ā 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 911Kās 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. Over to TG's Deputy Editor Ollie Kew, who spoke to company boss Richard Tuthill at The Quail Car Show in Americaā¦.
