The phrase 'pocket rocket' could well have been coined for 'P100 BBR', an astonishing Mini with no less than 350bhp on tap, which featured on BBC Top Gear in 2006. It was converted when new by renowned go-faster specialists Brodie Brittain Racing (BBR) of David Brodie, highly successful saloon car racer and well connected with Fast Ford performance, with the intention of making it the fastest Cooper S on the planet. According to the vendor, it remains so to this day. Small wonder then that the total cost, including the purchase of the standard car, was in excess of £90,000. The completely reworked engine features: a big valve head; BBR cam; solid tappets; turbocharger in place of the original supercharge; high-flow fuel system; remapped ECU; oil cooler plus high-flow water pump and radiator to keep the temperatures under control; and a big bore exhaust system and stainless steel downpipes to ensure the gases exit with optimum efficiency. So potent an ensemble naturally required related uprates to the running gear and chassis, which included: a limited-slip differential; anti-torque steer suspension; Polybush kit; bigger, ventilated disc brakes, and braided hoses; F1 Goodyear Eagle tyres.

This monster of a Mini is equipped with a 'Works' body kit and finished in the strident combination of Crystal Light Blue teamed with a White roof, alloy wheels and mirror casings. The full Recaro interior is trimmed in Dark Blue hide complemented by Mid Blue carpets. The mileage covered to date is under a mere 6,750 warranted miles from new, and the Cooper S comes complete with the suitably apt registration 'P100 BBR' plus its original service record and owners' handbook, and is considered by the vendor to have 'excellent' interior trim, 'very good' bodywork, engine, electrical equipment, and six-speed manual transmission, and 'good' paintwork. Purchasers of BMW Minis have been encouraged to customise them from day one, but this breathtaking example arguably takes the idea to a whole new level!
