    Watch as the MINI drifts into the BMW 130i GTR and causes both cars to crash out at Pflantgarten 16.5km in to the Nordschleife. Starts at 1:11 mark.

    The 107 BMW car was running a good race at the time until the MINI tried to sneak a cheap grope of the beautiful naked lady displayed on the side of the BMW.

    That explains the sudden loss of control of the MINI:D. The 130 driver was understandably pissed.

    I like the easy opening doors on the MINI. Those would come in handy in a tight parking spot :D

    They should start using those graphics instead of swirls to camouflage test mules -- would be just as effective!

    That would certainly draw a lot more attention to the spy-shot sites :D
