MINI Driver Nani Roma Takes 2nd Place at 2019 Dakar Rally

MINI driver Nani Roma placed at an impressive 2nd in the 2019 Dakar Rally, and a total of 5 MINI vehicles placed within the top 10 which is not a bad feat for a line of vehicles not typically associated with rally races. In case you're wondering, Toyota driver Nasser Al-Attiyah took the honors of 1st place. 


Roma was quick to thank the entire squad of drivers, engineers, mechanics and all of the other team members who worked diligently to support all of the MINI teams. Its safe to assume we will see MINI at the 2020 Dakar Rally, and with a bit of luck, and a continuation of the skill we've seen thus far, Roma could potentially earn a 1st place victory. 


We would like to congratulate Nani Roma and the entire team of MINI specialists which were involved in the 2019 Dakar Rally, and although the celebration is fresh in our minds, we wish them much success at next year's event.

Facelift For Bavarian Police Force BMW Vehicles

For the better part of 20 years, Bavarian police cars were manufactured with silver BMW 3 series vehicles. Prior to the silver color scheme, these vehicles sported a white base coat. Recently, the Bavarian government has decided to revamp their BMW police vehicles in terms of a color scheme. The new color scheme draws inspiration from the nostalgic white base coat used prior to 2003.  Modeled after their previously utilized retro white, blue, and yellow color scheme, new Bavarian BMW police vehicles have gone back to their roots by shedding the apparently outdated silver and green paint job. All new Bavarian police vehicle will be manufactured from BMW 3 Series Touring models with the new color scheme. This shift comes primarily from BMW's discontinuation of the Glacier Silver base color for the 3 series, but a higher resale value for white vehicles might also be a variable.  In contrast to the prior white Bavarian police BMWs, the new vehicles will be manufactured with a Mine...

2022 BMW X5 M Render Revealed

Based on recent spy photos of the new 2022 BMW X5 M model, a concept artist has rendered a very realistic, and potentially accurate, rendition of the vehicle changes. Although the exterior changes are minor compared to the 2021 model, the rendering shows updated headlights, a redesigned lower front end, and an added lip on the competition model.  In comparison, the majority of changes are reserved for the interior of the vehicle, and these updates include larger screens and a seamless curvature inspired design. No engine upgrades or modifications are expected, but several tech upgrades will certainly be showcased in the near future.  We look forward to the official reveal from BMW within the next few months. In the mean time, the concept render should satisfy your visual taste buds.
