<p>MINI is thrilled to announce an exciting new range of accessory parts for the latest generation of petrol-powered MINI Cooper models. Designed for enthusiasts who crave a more aggressive and sporty aesthetic, these accessories allow drivers to elevate their MINI into a true race car for the road.</p>
<p>Already known for its fierce exterior stance, owners can take their vehicle&#8217;s road presence to the next level, while the newest interior options will elevate the cabin experience even further.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-388879" src="https://leaseconnect.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/P90608254-highRes-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></p>
<p>Among the standout new additions are the JCW mirror caps, which subtly blend from Chili Red to Gloss Black, and feature the iconic John Cooper Works shaping prominently placed in the centre. These mirror caps not only enhance the sporty aesthetic of the MINI John Cooper Works (JCW) but also serve as a testament to the brand&#8217;s racing heritage.</p>
<p><strong>Aero Accessories: Aggression meets function</strong><br />The newly available John Cooper Works front, rear, and side Winglets are designed to sit proudly along the side profile of the car, giving a more dynamic appearance and improving aerodynamics. Additionally, the JCW C-pillar trim accentuates the sculpted side profile, adding a touch of sophistication to the aggressive design.</p>
<p>At the rear, the optional JCW Diffuser and JCW roof spoiler attachment replicates the aggressive styling that helped the MINI John Cooper Works secure victory in its class at the prestigious 2024 Nürburgring 24 Hours race. These enhancements not only create formidable presence but contribute to improved downforce and stability at higher speeds.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-388877" src="https://leaseconnect.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/P90608256-highRes-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="200" /></p>
<p><strong>Wheels: Heritage and Style Combined</strong><br />For those looking to set their vehicle apart, four striking alloy wheel options are newly available. The 18” JCW Rallye Spoke wheel &#8211; available in both Frozen Midnight Grey and Vibrant Silver &#8211; pays homage to rally heritage from the 1960s, while 17” JCW Sprint Spoke and 17” JCW Star Spoke alloys (available in Gloss Black), are well equipped to tackle of the challenges of day-to-day driving.</p>
<p>Completing the look, optional floating JCW hub caps ensure the iconic John Cooper Works logo remains level at all times, while red JCW valve caps provide an additional performance detail and offer protection for your tyres.</p>
<p><strong>Decals: Stand above the rest</strong><br />A range of new decal options are available for the bonnet, sides, and rear of the MINI Cooper. A new JCW bonnet decal, available in either Chili Red or Gloss Black, features a driver-side only dual-stripe, offering a fresh take on the iconic MINI bonnet stripes. This seamlessly marries with the optional JCW rear decal which flows down the boot lid and across the length of the boot. Finished in Satin Black, the JCW side decals provide the perfect contrast, enhancing the subtle trimmings and imposing stance of the model.</p>
<p><strong>Further enhancing your MINI: Additional stylish and functional Accessories<br /></strong>For those looking to add a touch of edge to the front of their vehicle, the Chili Red JCW branded Tow Strap is an excellent choice, making a bold statement while also providing practical use. In addition, the carbon fibre Fuel Filler Cap, adorned with the iconic JCW text, fits seamlessly under the fuel flap. For those that want carbon fibre visible on the exterior of the car, the JCW Carbon Tailpipe Trim further enhances aggression of the rear, especially when alongside the JCW diffuser.</p>
<p>Moving inside the vehicle, JCW Door Pins are a subtle yet impactful addition, embodying the spirit of the JCW brand. John Cooper Works Floor Mats are also available, finished with a striking Chili Red border and iconic lettering.</p>

<li><strong>MINI returns to the 24-hour Nürburgring race, continuing its collaboration with Bulldog Racing. </strong></li>
<li><strong>Collaboration with DEUS Ex Machina for striking new MINI racing livery. </strong></li>
<li><strong>The race starts on 21 June 2025.</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Following last year’s class win, MINI John Cooper Works will again compete at this year’s 53rd annual 24-hour race at the Nürburgring, in collaboration with Bulldog Racing. Achieving victory in the SP-3T class last year with the nearing-production #317 MINI John Cooper Works Pro, MINI is hoping to continue this success in 2025 at &#8220;Green Hell&#8221; &#8211; one of the toughest tests in motorsport with fast straights, demanding curves, and significant elevation changes.<strong></p>
<p>MINI x DEUS<br /></strong>At the starting line of this year&#8217;s race, the MINI John Cooper Works will feature a specially designed black and white livery from DEUS Ex Machina &#8211; a glimpse into something the two brands MINI x DEUS are building toward.</p>
<p>&#8220;Our models have always been characterised by the combination of design and dynamics. Our MINI John Cooper Works, which will compete in the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring, takes this combination to the next level: Thanks to this collaboration with Deus Ex Machina, we are setting new, exciting impulses for MINI fans and motorsport enthusiasts. Both brands are characterised by creativity and attention to detail, which allows the creation of exclusive designs with a distinctly individual style,&#8221; explains Stefan Richmann, Head of MINI.</p>
<p>Combining passion, high performance and craftsmanship, the design team have created a black and white vehicle livery featuring a large “DEUS” logo as a graphic element. The unconventional, playful handling of the brand presence is typical of DEUS and gives the MINI 24-hour race car its visual identity this year.</p>
<p>The reduced black and white colour scheme ensures that additional elements such as starting numbers or team logos are harmoniously integrated into the overall image while hand-drawn logos on the windows and other surfaces underline the raw, conceptual character of the race car, making it appear like a &#8220;moving sketchbook&#8221;. This is intended to suggest that the Nürburgring 24-hour race car is just a foretaste. It is the perfect first milestone in the MINI x DEUS collaboration.</p>
<p>For the design of the race car livery, MINI Design collaborated with Designworks. The BMW Group subsidiary has elaborated the creative idea of DEUS in detail. &#8220;Successful brand collaborations arise when partners inspire and drive each other forward. With DEUS, MINI and Designworks, we were able to unleash a remarkable design dynamic. The DEUS livery of the MINI John Cooper Works at the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring is just the first proof of this,&#8221; says Holger Hampf, Head of MINI Design.<br /><strong><br />MINI Continues Its Racing Heritage<br /></strong>With its appearance, MINI is continuing its long-standing racing heritage. The brand has been considered an underdog in motorsports from the very beginning &#8211; and yet has written motorsport history. The 1964 Monte Carlo Rally became a shining moment for the British Outsider; with its transversely mounted front engine and front-wheel drive, the classic Mini was the epitome of a practical small car &#8211; and proved to be a successful race car thanks to the ingenious racing engineer John Cooper.</p>
<p>The victory in the Monte Carlo Rally was not an accident, but the result of meticulous hardwork. This was followed by two more victories in the famous rally in 1965 and 1967. The tradition and passion for MINI&#8217;s racing heritage is still palpable and tangible in the current line-up. The latest MINI John Cooper Works models are characterised by their aerodynamic precision and performance-oriented four-cylinder TwinPower Turbo petrol engine.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The maximally sporty driving behavior of the MINI John Cooper Works also delights with an extra portion of driving fun even in demanding road conditions. The high-performance model impressively demonstrates the brand-typical agility, also on ice and snow. The individual character of the powerful model can now be enhanced through exclusive equipment components.</p>
<p>Note: This press release is a 1:1 copy of the original issued by BMW headquarters in Germany. No adaptions have been made to cater to the UK market.<strong><br /></strong></p>
<div id="article-text">
<p><strong>Munich. </strong>Snow-capped peaks and glistening ice surfaces promise adrenaline-filled pleasure in winter sports. Conditions that also invite one to enjoy the winter in a particularly emotional way in the MINI John Cooper Works. The new equipment components for the powerful three-door MINI in high-gloss Black and Chili Red set particularly striking accents against a snow-white landscape. But even in any other season, aerodynamically optimised details and racing-inspired design draw attention to themselves.</p>
<p><strong>Maximum driving dynamics and safety in any weather.</strong> <br />The distinctly sporty MINI John Cooper Works impresses with a four-cylinder TwinPower Turbo petrol engine and 170 kW/231 hp, even on snow and ice, with impressive driving characteristics. The chassis technology developed with racing expertise conveys the legendary go-kart feeling in demanding road conditions and at the same time ensures safe driving fun. The maximum torque of 380 Nm accelerates the MINI John Cooper Works (combined fuel consumption: 6.8 – 6.5 l/100 km; combined CO<sub>2</sub> emissions: 154 – 147 g/km according to WLTP) from a standstill to 100 km/h in 6.1 seconds. The top speed is reached at 250 km/h.</p>
<p><strong>Original John Cooper Works accessories for performance-optimised aerodynamics.<br /></strong>The extremely sporty orientation can be further enhanced by John Cooper Works aerodynamic components. High-quality winglets for the front and rear bumpers as well as the side skirts strengthen the character of the vehicle. The shape and design of the air guidance elements were developed specifically for the MINI John Cooper Works. In high-gloss Black and Chili Red and together with the JCW roof spoiler and the JCW rear diffusor, they set contrasting motorsport accents. The newly designed JCW element for the C-pillar makes the vehicle appear more powerful.</p>
<p>The long motorsport history of MINI John Cooper Works dates back to the 1960s. As early as January 1964, the classic Mini demonstrated its feel for snow on the Col de Turini in the icy hairpin bends of the French Maritime Alps during the Monte Carlo Rally. With the overall victory that followed, Paddy Hopkirk made the Mini a motorsport legend. Timo Mäkinen and Rauno Aaltonen repeated the triumph in 1965 and 1967.</p>
<p><strong>Puristic design with enhanced motorsport flair.<br /></strong>The racing-oriented design of the MINI John Cooper Works keeps the successful history present to this day. The new JCW-specific foiling underlines the unparalleled performance of the model. Asymmetrical stripes in Chili Red on the bonnet, the body side and the rear of the vehicle give the MINI John Cooper Works an individual character.</p>
<p>On the black front grille, the red MINI JCW tow strap with a black JCW logo can make a decorative statement. The design of the high-quality accessory comes from rally sport. Black and red JCW exterior mirror caps with a chequered flag design reference the motorsport history and round off the exclusive look of the MINI John Cooper Works.</p>
<p>The 17-inch complete winter wheels with the JCW Star Spoke design ensure the necessary grip on slippery roads. A fixed JCW hub cover keeps the JCW logo horizontal in the centre of the rim during driving, providing a visual highlight. In addition, red MINI valve caps with the JCW logo offer secure protection.</p>
<p>The diverse accessory programme for the MINI John Cooper Works offers exclusive equipment options with which motorsport enthusiasts can enjoy maximum sporty driving fun with individual accents.</p>
