Every month, we’ll be talking about the most famous cars that have appeared on the big screen and will always be remembered for that very reason.

This month, we’re taking a closer look at the Mini Cooper from The Italian Job

                                                           

The car chase scene in The Italian Job (the 1969 film, not the remake) is one of, if not, the most famous car chases ever shown on the big screen.

At the heart of all the stunts and driving is the car itself, the classic Mini Cooper, which is still at the top of many a driver’s wishlist.

While they are certainly compact cars and not ideal for heading off on holiday or moving house, they are sturdy and will never age.

And here they are in all their glory (obviously, don’t try this yourself)…
