• Registration has opened for The Italian Job Touring Event 2012, with rally enthusiasts in the UK, Europe and further afield being encouraged to sign up. This long-running event takes place October 25–November 2. As in previous years, over 100 Mini and classic car enthusiasts will head for the start line in Italy; this year, starting in Rome. Jobbers (as participants are known) spend eight adventure-filled days driving well off the beaten track through beautiful, unspoilt scenery and avoiding major roads. They will enjoy a lap or two on the Mugello racing track, drive on the Ferrari circuit in Imola and will also visit Turin—famed venue of the Italian Job movie heist—where they will go for a spin on the famous Lingotto rooftop test track used in the film. To sign up for this year’s event, or for more information, please visit www.italianjob.com.
