The Britalian Job: MINI remakes the Italian Job for London 2012

MINI has done a remake of the Italian Job – dubbed the ‘Britalian Job – to celebrate the London 2012 Olympics. MINI always turns up interesting promo videos (not always good, but always interesting) so with BMW sponsoring the London 2012 Olympics it’s no surprise they’ve had their camcorders out. The result is something MINI are calling the ‘Britalian Job’, an homage to the classic 1960s Italian Job with the original Mini and starring Michael Caine and Noel Coward (and Benny Hill), although in truth it’s more like an homage to the later version with Charlize Theron.

Brabus tunes Mercedes-Benz GLK

Yes, this is the same Mercedes-Benz GLK that broke cover in New York during the Sex and the City movie, but we guarantee Carrie, Sam, Miranda and Charlotte wouldn't be caught dead in it. That's because German tuner Brabus took the standard Mercedes GLK and made it into a 200-mph freight train. The go-fast guys started by wedging a Mercedes-sourced, twin-turbo V12 into the GLK's engine bay.

Fisker Karma S concept

Fisker Automotive revealed the newest addition to its lineup at NAIAS 2009, exactly a year after the independent carmaker unveiled its first concept vehicle, the Karma. Called the Karma S concept, the four-seat convertible was designed by Henrik Fisker with input from a newly assembled design team taken on to help bring the Karma sedan to production. The design of the S is likely to make it to the showroom almost unchanged.
