The best modified R56 Mini in the UK ! [FIRST DRIVE]
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Welcome to The Friday Feature powered by H&H Classics...
www.handh.co.uk
It has taken 12 months for me to get this Mini on the channel after I saw it at a show last year. The stand out feature are the Lamborghini inspired doors but the car is full of so many beautiful details, from the seats to the carbon fibre detailing on the dash.
Under the bonnet is a fully forged engine running a Stage 3 tune producing 310 horsepower and just shy of 400 Nm of torque.

Vince is my neighbour and I can tell you that he cleans that car 5 to 6 hours a weekend, it is an amazingly beautiful car and Vince is one of the nicest people you will ever meet.

Out of interest do you live around Epsom? Remember seeing this all the time around there when I worked in Epsom.

Yup it'll be a laugh for about 5 mins and then annoying as hell.
I used the Mini configurator for the first time today to visualise a cream coloured Cooper with black bonnet stripes. Competitively priced at £18.5K for a car that matches a 205 GTi 1.9 in performance and it would also fit into my small garage! I now get why they are so popular.
Holy shit ….my eyes nearly fell out of my head when I seen that interior…..that’s unreal ! ….superb doesn’t quite cover it !

See I was good and changed my comment from holy **** to holy monkeys, but I was thinking what you said!
I've been watching a few Mini Cooper vids recently solely for the sheer happiness you get from the exhaust notes but, my oh my. This car has definitely done that and much more. I'm sitting here with a wide grin plastered across my face with absolute respect for the owner's choice of setup and the way it has been presented by Peter and Vince. Vince, if you're reading this, your car is an absolute beauty and thank you for the smiles! Peter, thank you for showing these cars to us with your channel! Sincerely, A big guy with an even bigger grin.
I think all that popping and banging would drive me mad after a while,what you think ?

Such an insane build, I just took delivery of a JCW GP (that I plan to keep completely stock) but seeing the amount of work this person put in is crazy. I think my car tuning days are over, I had a 426whp Type R that was good for a while... but then it all went up in flames (literally) lol.

Great vid. 👍 Loved everything about that car except the wheels and O8 livery. Deep red on grey looked fab
Great Friday video. Will have to get to a Mini show to see this beauty in person. Loved the throttle noise but couldn’t cope with pops & bangs 😂. Have a feeling this one might cost you some money judging by your reaction!

You could be like my neighbor who drives a McLaren, he frequently peels out once dark and really goes. I guess he thinks if you can't see it no one will know who it is. Doesn't seem to realize we all know the sound of his car and the taillights are wonderfully distinctive. Of course none of us want to ban him, we would however not mind being lent the car for a drive.

Two on the drive and on MINI number seven here. I’ve always loved the wee mods, personal changes to make MINI’s more personal be it simply white indicator bulbs or more. The owner has went all in as they say and fair play. I enjoying seeing people mods, some may not be to my taste but I always appreciate the effort and engineering. Bet that absolutely chews through tyres 😁. And I though people doing the joey mod to the lights were brave😁.
Just came across this on my recommended, subscribed as you mentioned you had an R59 roadster and so do I !

Loved this one. Party piece pops and bangs are just wow....to live with though? Nah, but as a show piece this is an incredible mini. The owner seems like such a polite, smiley, well spoken man too I didn’t expect this to be fair. No wonder he’s constantly smiling though with those pops/bangs.

Beautiful detail everywhere, especially the interior and bonnet carbon treatment. Love the doors and the Recaro seats, However I wouldn’t want to clean those wheels too often. BUT those pops and bangs from the exhaust!! “Anti Social” comes to mind. It would drive me and probably my Nieghbour’s mad.

Love it...but I would be arrested in Switzerland for scaring the cows! Those doors...those doors...simply exquisite. The engine...wow. The carbon/interior...wow.
Oh man, that’s a lovely Mini. Would love an upgrade to a R56 from the R53!
What an extreme pleasure to view and listen to. It just makes you want to go out and spend a whole lotta money on your Mini! I unfortunately would find it necessary to install an assassin’s silencer on the AK47 … my neighbors would have me strung up, in public view, otherwise. But the on petal sound was that one dreams of. Wonderful video, Mini and owner. Cheers!
Just beautiful 😊
What a stunning showpiece of a car. Looks like there's been a very pretty penny spent on it!!!

Hi Petrol Ped great Mini R56 great looking car, in my opinion without the bangs its a great looking car & if u look at it from behind it does not look like, a Mini finished very nice inside too
Cool intro !
Tastefully modified 👏🏽
Beautiful car
A show car that goes aswell as it looks👌👍. I like all the details & work that's gone into making the Mini, unique & look as good as it does. I don't mind the occasional pop's & cracks from an exhaust & I can see that having popcorn & AK's firing out the back can be fun sometimes/party-piece, but for me I'd be tempted to have a popcorn tune available at the flick of a switch (missile style flip switch - ON/OFF ).

Hi Ped Some might consider it to be over the top, but all credit to Vince I think it is brilliant. However would pass on the exhaust mods for road use. The build quality and attention to detail is superb. We need people like Vince, I vanity see the same enthusiasm when all that it available are EV’s😥

Holy......monkees, I would want to drive it with the bonnet top OFF! Every time I drove it I would have the microfiber out to get any particle of dust off the moment I got home. I would spend equal time looking at it as driving it. And letting a stranger borrow it? Yeah, right, I wouldn't let my best friend drive it (maybe if Jay Leno was my best friend I might). It might be noisy, impractical and expensive....but I still like it.

Great looking Mini and what an attention to detail. However, having a dog that has developed a fear of cars, after we one day where we were passed by 40ish cars with popping exhaust, I will NEVER make my exhaust pop if I’m passing a dog on the street or in an area where I’d expect dogs.
