    Following on from the great success they've had with the MINI, BMW are apparently looking into resurecting another british favourite.........

    ......yes the Austin Allegro! Apparently the first designs are under way and will centre around the infamous square steering wheel arrangement.

    it is hinted also that the cult classic princess may be next for the treatment following BMW's design chief reviewing old taped episodes of Driven!

    Just had to click on that, looks like the Allegro peeps have an equivalent obsessive car cleaner that rivals our very own M"
