My F31 340i Touring with the M performance power kit is fun, 367BHP and 0-100 KPH in 4.8 secs.
De badged it looks like a 320d, so not much bother from the stripey Fiesta boys!
Practical too.
Most powerful mini engine currently available is 2 Lt. Cooper S JCW which is 231PS - "IF you are careful with your right foot" you might manage 31 mpg on a run.
That is my experience!
Earlier this year I took out a new mobile phone contract at a local branch of one of the major suppliers.
The following day my bank shut down my accounts and contacted me because someone was attempting to make a large payment from my account using the "Faster payments telephone scheme"...
My BMW 340i M Performance has this setup, driven in comfort mode it keeps changing up to maintain about 1400RPM and has a flat torque curve from about 1250RPM to 5000rpm.
It's like driving a very smooth Cummins B until you switch it to hooligan mode - then you get 0-62 in 4.6 seconds and 367...
My 2016 BMW already has something like that - outside the car it sounds like a raspy six pot (which it is) inside it sounds like a v8!. It has synthesised sound to
"enhance the driving experience" so I can pretend to be Frank Bullit when I go to Tesco!
