Remember David Brown Automotive? The company started out stripping old Jaguar XKs of their bodywork and fitting its own, Aston Martin DB5-like panels to make the controversial, 600,000 Speedback GT. Then a couple of years ago it revealed the Mini Remastered - a resto-mod that used upgraded versions of the original"s engine, transmission and chassis, but added, among other things, a plush new interior with all the mod-cons. These Minis cost around 75,000 before options or personalisation - of which much was offered. And now there"s an even more expensive one. Developed in partnership with specialist Oselli, the Mini Remastered Oselli Edition" is effectively a little hot hatch.
