I've currently got a 58 plate R56 JCW and am thinking of upgrading to the GP. I haven't test driven the GP yet, just wondering if there's a big noticeable difference? I know what all the differences are, adj coil overs, increased turbo pressure, lighter etc etc, just wondered if anyone else has done the same?

Cheers

Sold. If its 'much more fun to drive', it must be incredible as the standard JCW is already high on the fun scale.

Thanks for sharing!

Hi Lestiq,

I haven't got the GP yet but am still considering to be honest. My JCW is now up on the classifieds though.

I also had an SD so my journey would be SD - JCW - GP!
The SD felt really torquey compared to the JCW, when i first drove the JCW (after I bought it) it felt slower weirdly enough. But once you get used to the way the JCW drives, its definitely faster.

Cheers
