Hi fellow mini lovers,

I just recently had my F56 JCW written off and am in the market for another. Ideally I want to go cheaper and go for the R56 JCW. I have one in mind but I don't want the N14 engine. The jcw I have my eye on is a stage 1 with a custom AEM induction kit so I was hoping someone could help shed some light on the type of engine it has!

Please see the image and let me know if it's an N14 or N18 if you can! Thanks in advance.

As said N14, but I wouldn't discount it out of hand, a well looked after 14 is still better than a neglected 18.

I think the R56 JCW still ran the N14 engine, even after the Cooper S got the N18 as part of the facelift.

Cooper s got the 18 in 2010, JCW didn't get the 18 till 2012/13
