JCW clubman - what is the gp kit?
I'm looking at 09 clubman JCW. I ran the Carfax on one I'm considering a it read mini cooper clubman JCW gp kit. What does the gp kit mean?
Also, when i ran the vin in the BMW site it shows up as a clubman s under the model. But under the e-code it says r55 JCW. Does that mean this was a clubman s with a JCW instal from the dealer? Thanks!

Thanks for the link.
A couple additional questions
What is a gp kit?
Factory JCW vs dealer installed JCW
Dealer installed equals about 10% less hp, no upgrade on breaks, transmission or any internal engine parts.
Other than that am I missing anything?
With this Mini being my first one and I do want the JCW kit is it not smart to get the dealer installed?
Does the dealer JCW get better mpg or better insurance rates since it's not a full blown JCW?
Thanks for the help.
