A truly unique track/sprint/hill climb car, built by marque experts as a seriously fast display of their craftsmanship.

The Mini F93 Challenge is a one of a kind fusion of British agility and Swedish turbocharged power, designed to dominate on track. Built as a passion project and showpiece by marque experts, as parts suppliers of both Mini and Saab, it combines the dynamic chassis of the Mini F56 Cooper S with the reliable and powerful Saab 9-3 drivetrain. This lightweight creation delivers razor-sharp handling whilst harnessing the proven reliability and power of the Saab B207 2-litre turbocharged engine. Visually, the genuine Mini Challenge body kit gives the car an aggressive stance, complemented by a carbon fibre roof scoop and spoiler.

The chassis has been extensively modified to accommodate the Saab powertrain, with a reinforced subframe and a half-cage for added rigidity. Running JCW brakes with EBC Bluestuff pads and stainless steel braided lines, the stopping power is formidable. Mechanically the B207 engine has been combined with a hybrid Mitsubishi TD04 turbocharger, a high-flow intercooler and a custom 3" exhaust system, resulting in an impressive 340bhp.

Power is laid down via a Quaife limited-slip differential, a Saab 6-speed gearbox with a Quaife 6-speed gear set and custom driveshafts ensuring seamless, consistent and predictable power delivery, while a Bilstein B16 coilover suspension kit and polybushes further enhance the exceptional cornering control. Inside the car, the Mini's cockpit is transformed with a hybrid Saab/Mini dashboard, Bimarco Hummer bucket seats, STR competition harnesses and a Zeitronix data logger. Every element has been designed with speed in mind, ensuring maximum driver engagement. Rolling on Team Dynamics wheels wrapped in Dunlop slick racing tyres, the F93 Challenge is an uncompromising track weapon.

This extraordinary build showcases craftsmanship, expertise and a commitment to pushing the boundaries. With its unique combination of Saab turbocharged power and Mini agility, the F93 Challenge is a fabulous testament to engineering ingenuity, ready to take on track with immediate effect.
