 Made in AdLand. The Mini Cooper Robot. Amazing. A proper robot at last? Check out the videos, especially this one [561kb, Quicktime]. Via linkfilter.And, of course, it's a hoax. It's an ad.

I imagined a robot with the ability to repair vehicles, direct traffic and watch over high-accident crossroads to preempt accidents.
