The Mini JCW GP is the ultimate incarnation of the latest Mini, with 215bhp from its turbocharged 1.6-litre engine launching it to 62mph in 6.2 seconds. But is it the fastest Mini you can buy? Its competition could be a kit car from the North East of England called the ZCars Mini Busa. It features a tubular construction and fibreglass panels resulting in a 550kg kerbweight and a 0-60mph sprint of 3.9 seconds thanks to its screaming 194bhp Suzuki Hayabusa superbike engine.
