If you're like me you've probably seen the original version of The Italian Job quite a few times - that's the one with Michael Caine and set in Turin, Italy.
One of the great bits in the film is when the minis race through Turin loaded with gold, at one point doing a circuit or two on the rooftop test track of Fiat's Turin headquarters, with the Italian police in hot pursuit.
Well, that building with the test track is now one of Turin's top hotels, the Art+Tech, converted into a 5 star hotel in time for the 2006 Winter Olympics. The test track is still there, although now used as a running track for guests, so you can recreate your own Italian Job moments on your own 2 feet.
