This week on Zooming with DRIVEN Dean tells us about his trip to the Fully Charged Show in Sydney to see the new MG4 EV before its release here later this year, but also the new long-range version of the popular MG ZS EV that will be here shortly as well. The Fully Charged Show is a roadshow of electric vehicles that is a spin off of the popular YouTube channel of the same name that was started by actor, writer and broadcaster Robert Llewellyn, better know by cultured and intelligent people as Kryten from the British comedy series Red Dwarf, who was present at the show. David makes us all feel just that bit older with the news that the mighty McLaren P1 is actually ten years old, and that the man who designed the iconic hypercar - Frank Stephenson - has just revealed his latest design - a baby seat! Dean then covers off the news out of the USA about a classic Datsun 240Z selling for some seriously big money, while David tells us about the sexy Hyundai Ioniq 6 arriving in New Zealand and the global reveal of the new Hyundai Kona, as well as the fact that you can now buy a brand new classic Defender from Land Rover, by way of Bowler. But it costs $150,000 and there is only one of them. Confused? Watch the video... Finally Dean fills us in on the last-ever race meeting at the Pukekohe race track, where he will be racing in the DRIVEN Mazda MX-5 in the Mazda race series. We also put out the call for you - yes, you! - to review your car for our upcoming new regular feature: Reader's Reviews. Review your car and let our other readers know the good, the bad and the ugly things about it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Skip the first 20 minutes if it's too slow - I promise it perks up!   ABOUT BERK: Berk is a Designer/Educator/Content creator from Turkey and currently has the best Blender course on the internet!   He studied at SPD in Milano under the mighty sketch machine than is Michele Leonello. He has worked mostly independently, apart from a couple of stints at ItalDesign and Design Storz. Most recently it was announced that Berk has also started working for the celebrity designer Frank Stephenson.   Our internet connection was a bit dodgy, so we had a rocky start. I would recommend skipping the first 20 minutes as things had loosened up by then and got into the groove!   This is a great guy with some great insights and gives a lot of himself to the Car Design community.

Introducing Episode 020 of our weekly music podcast, Miami Music Partners Radio, featuring a special 1-hour set by this week's guest DJ, LIV Miami resident, MEDNAS.MMP Radio is brought to you by the Miami Music Partners, Miami's premier organization for the production & promotion of Dance Music events. Follow us on Instagram @MiamiMusicPartners or visit us online at MiamiMusicPartners.com, to stay up to date on our latest special events, and podcast special guest mixes!ARTIST, GUEST BIO. - MEDNAS: better known Mednas, is a DJ and producer originally from Casablanca, Morocco. He is the resident DJ of the Miami club, LIV. His track "Derby" with Nima Nesta was on the Beatport Top Ten chart and has been supported by EDM DJs such as Tiësto, Avicii, Erick Morillo, Roger Sanchez, Third Party, Junior Sanchez, and Morgan Page. His remix of Parker Ighile's "So Beautiful" with Henrix was supported by Nicki Minaj. Mednas specializes in tech house, progressive house and electro house.Though clubs all over the world know him as Mednas, he wasn't always known by that name. He was born Mehdi Nassiri, facing the sea, in beautiful Casablanca, Morocco. Casablanca itself has always played an important role in popular culture. It became famous in the 1940s thanks to the Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman film of the same name. Throughout its history it had been the birthplace or home to many famous people - from film star Jean Reno to automobile designer Frank Stephenson to poet Abdallah Zrika.Along the way Nassiri was practically destined to make it onto that last - it's just that nobody involved really knew it at the time.Music had always been an important part of Nassiri's life, for as far back as he could remember. His mother spent time as a sound engineer for Moroccan Radio, among other jobs. He was even enrolled at an early age into a conservatory to learn the piano, but he didn't stay very long - something bigger awaited.● Soundcloud -click here● Beatport - click here● Spotify - click here

The Democratic debates already are under way. Six, maybe more, of the 20-plus candidates perhaps have a shot at winning the party's nomination to face a Trump presidency that -- despite tweets and twists -- has two critical elements needed for four more years: relative peace and prosperity.

Dr. Frank Stephenson, who's the chair of the Department of Accounting, Economics and Finance as well as the Henry Gund Professor of Economics at Berry College, joins John Druckenmiller of Hometown Headlines to both examine the nearly two dozen Democratic hopefuls in 2020 and the Trump incumbency that might be too hard to crack.

MINI: 10 anni di successi MINI ha festeggiato con una mostra alla presenza di vip e stampa alla Triennale di Milano il decennale della nuova MINI by BMW Group. Due lustri durante i quali la nuova era MINI ha saputo rinverdire i fasti di quella ideata da Sir Alec Issigonis che negli anni sessanta divenne un’autentica icona del mondo automobilistico, ma anche delle tendenze modaiole. Il Gruppo BMW ha saputo cogliere l’attimo e ha deciso che l’inizio del nuovo millennio rappresentava il momento ideale per rilanciare il brand britannico. Ma l’idea del ritorno MINI risale alla seconda metà degli anni novanta, subito dopo che BMW rilevò il Gruppo Rover, all’epoca proprietario del marchio inglese. I progetti, creati da Frank Stephenson, furono affidati al designer Gert Volker Hildebrand, il vero papà della MINI del terzo millennio. Gli appassionati non avrebbero accettato una rivoluzione totale, fu quindi consequenziale il ricorso alle forme della vettura del passato, ovviamente interpretate in maniera moderna. La prima MINI della nuova era fu presentata in anteprima al Salone di Parigi dell’autunno 2000 e l’entusiasmo con il quale venne accolta da pubblico e critica convinse BMW che era arrivato il momento tanto atteso del lancio nei concessionari. La MINI era motorizzata con un 4 cilindri benzina di 1,6 litri da 90 CV per la One e da 115 CV per la Cooper. Il 2002 è l’anno del debutto della pepata Cooper S da 163 CV e due anni dopo esordisce l’inevitabile versione a gasolio, la One D con motore 1.4 da 75 CV a consolidare i già ottimi risultati di vendita. Il 2004 segna anche il debutto della Cabrio con tetto elettrico in tela e gamma motoristica della Hatchback ad esclusione del diesel. Le prime supersportive targate John Cooper Works da 200 CV risalgono al 2005, un anno prima dell’introduzione della seconda generazione, serie che presenta inediti motori 4 cilindri. Nel 2007 è la volta della versione a carrozzeria allungata Clubman dotata di una singola porticina con apertura controvento sul lato passeggero. Lo studio Crossover Concept anticipa poi le linee del 4° modello di gamma, la Countryman, prima 4 porte MINI e prima a superare i 4 metri di lunghezza, oltre a risultare la prima MINI con trazione integrale ALL4 (optional). E veniamo ai giorni nostri con la più potente variante diesel targata SD e con l’imminente lancio della prima MINI Coupé due posti secchi (esordio l’1-2 ottobre) ad esaltare ancor di più il celebre go-kart feeling della Casa. Dieci anni di successi testimoniati dai 2 milioni di esemplari prodotti ad Oxford e da una serie di partnership nel campo del design, del cinema e della moda. Se nel 2001 il claim del rilancio MINI recitava “Is it Love?”, oggi a quella domanda possiamo rispondere “Yes!”. MINI ha attecchito anche in Italia, terzo mercato europeo e quinto al mondo per volumi di vendita (più di 200 mila unità). Ma la storia MINI non si ferma e fervono già i preparativi per il debutto delle novità 2012 Roadster e Paceman.
