Lohen - New MINI Specialists

Car Diary

This page contains details of our own MINIs. Currently we have five demo cars: an electric blue MINI Cooper S Gen1, a black MINI One Gen1, a pepper white MINI Cooper S Gen2, a hyper blue MINI Cooper S Gen1, and a sparkling silver MINI Cooper D Clubman Gen2. Watch this space for further developments.
Project 'Road Racer'

We want this MINI to sum up what we’re about and it shows people what Lohen think makes a great car. It’s a formidable performer, both on the road and on the track, yet still manages to retain the creature comforts most race cars lose. In all, this car has to be fast, handle well, yet still look good and be a comfortable but sporty-feeling car. This MINI was entered in and ran in the 2005 Tuner Grand Prix.

Project 'Playing with a Cooper S'

Joined Lohen in November 2004, the MINI One is now becoming a seriously good car to drive. The car will make any Cooper S nervous in its own territory. Its direction has been decided and the aim is to not only scare a Cooper S, but to eventually compete on the same level as one. Attends regular track days. As featured in Go Mini magazine in the October 2005 issue and Modern MINI magazine in the September 2006 issue.
