Mini Cooper JCW COST HOW MUCH TO RUN???

Описание: How much does it really cost to own and run a Mini Cooper JCW?

In today’s episode, I break down the real cost of ownership for my 2022 Mini Cooper John Cooper Works after 4 years and 36,000 miles. With snow dumping in North Georgia, this felt like the perfect time to skip borrowing a new press car and instead dive into the numbers on my own Mini.

We cover everything from warranties and maintenance to track-day wear items, unexpected frustrations, and what Mini’s complimentary maintenance program actually looked like in the real world.

In this video, we cover:

Total cost to own over 4 years

Would I still buy a JCW again?

Total cost of ownership: $10,130
Miles driven: 36,000
Use case: Daily driving + aggressive track use

This car was originally a nostalgia buy inspired by The Italian Job, but it turned into one of the most fun, confidence-inspiring cars I’ve ever driven—especially on track. Front-wheel drive, 8-speed auto, and shockingly capable when pushed.

If you own a Mini Cooper:

Did your dealer honor the complimentary maintenance?

Any horror stories (or great experiences)?

Would you buy another one?

If you enjoyed this cost-to-own breakdown, let me know—this could become a recurring series on the channel.

Its fare to say that the cars that are the most fun to drive, tend to cost the most to drive. In theory the mini cooper JCW is the exception to that rule (minus the $50K price tag) The operational costs for this car may shock you.
