MINI Coupe: The video adventure begins

MINI Coupe Adventure - if it's Wednesday, it must be Hong Kong Well, it wouldn’t be MINI without a new video to promote the MINI Coupe. Just days after we finally got the MINI Coupe sans camouflage – and with a gazillion photos to go with it – MINI are already on to the next step of the marketing buzz – the MINI Coupe video. Actually, we had a choice fo two ways to go; either a pile of fairly dull bits in lowish resolution that came in without a soundtrack, or a buzzy little viral-aimed ‘MINI Coupe Adventure’.

Aston Martin V8 Vantage S: The Video

Aston Martin V8 Vantage S on track at the Ascari Circuit in Spain We’re always up for a bit of Aston Martin goodness, so we were more than happy to report in January that Aston Martin has added a bit of extra oomph to the V8 to create the Aston Martin V8 Vantage S. To be honest, there’s not a huge amount of extra power on the Vantage V8 S – just 10bhp – but there are a chunk of tweaks that make it very appealing, including a new seven speed Sportshift ‘box, sharper steering, better braking and a bit of suspension tweaking to make the V8S that bit more aggressive. All this new V8 S goodness was served up at the Geneva Motor Show last week, but we got a bit sidetracked with the new Aston Martin Virage – or DB9 Ghia – in a marmite shade of orange hogging AM’s Geneva stand.
