wrong newsgroup - he wants the new italian job film - try alt.autos.new-mini or just googling "new mini" and "italain job" - first hit is this
Electric ?
They had to modify 3 cars to use batteries, because they were precluded from using any other method of propulsion in the LA underground system.
LA ?
Los Angeles
Got all your answers? Looks like it was the right newsgroup afterall.
The Italian Job with Minis took place in Turin. I think there was a rather crappy Hollywood remake made after that with BMWs in LA, but nothing Italian about it.
The heist (or job, if you will) took place in Venice, which was still in Italy last time I was there. A pretty flimsy pretence for ripping off a classic film title, but there you go
