This PlayStation release is based on the 1969 British feature film of the same title. The game's plot progression is driven by an attempt to steal a great amount of gold bullion from under the noses of the police and mafia during a traffic jam distraction.

As in the movie, this third-person mission-based driving game challenges its heroes to weave through busy city streets, as well as down sewers and even over rooftops in efforts to confuse and elude authorities.

The game features the movie's showpiece Mini-coopers as well as 13 other vehicles. The adventure takes place through London, Turin, and the Swiss Alps.

  Manufacturer's description:

London, 1969. Charlie Croker has just finished a three year stretch, courtesy of Her Majesty's Prisons, and has an idea: to steal $4,000,000 in gold bullion, right from under the noses of the Mafia and the Turin Police.

This is where you come in... as one of his drivers, you'll have to master 14 vehicles, including flashy sports cars and the legendary Mini Cooper, as you screech down sewers, roar over rooftops and tear through the Alps, with the Mob and the law hot on your heels.

It'll be the crime of your life!
