Performance Mini Magazine Aug/Sept 2022 Edição anterior

Our cover car this issue is guaranteed to put a smile on your face. It’s fair to say that this R58 is no shrinking violet and that you’d definitely need to be something of an extrovert yourself to handle all the attention it would be getting, but there’s no denying this wide-body Coupé is one awesome and seriously eye-popping build. And even if the wide arches and bright green wrap don’t tick your boxes, it’s great to see the R58 getting some love for sure. Elsewhere, we have a fine mix of MINIs for you to enjoy, with a flavour for just about every palette. Flying the R53 flag, we have a seriously tasty Cooper S that does everything right, with a host of styling and performance mods, and it’s a very impressive build that ticks all our boxes. If you’re more of a soft-top fan, then have we got an R52 for you. This Stateside show-stopper serves up a bold colour scheme that makes sure it gets all the attention, and it also happens to be packing one of the most epic audio systems we’ve ever seen in a first-gen, and it makes for one awesome little drop-top. We’ve also got an absolutely awesome turbo R50 race build making over 400whp. This is an incredible high-performance machine, and it’s an absolute beast. On top of all that, there’s a slick F56 that’s been treated to a fine selection of styling and tuning mods, plus a tech Q&A about engine flush, oil additive and injector cleaner, and a buying and tuning guide to the F56.
