FAN FAVORITE movie cars linger long in the memory of our most popular films and some die-hard fans may even buy them.
Classics like Batman, Scoobie Doo and James Bond have iconic cars attached to them.
This has made some of the engines incredibly expensive, as fans want to get behind the bench as their favorite characters.
Motorpoint did the math and calculated exactly how much you would need to spend to own 10 iconic cars from TV and movies.
Beetle – Herbie
11
The little Volkswagen Beetle impressed the public with its remarkable self-driving ability in the 1968 classic.
Cheaper Beatles can be yours for less than £10,000, but a more authentic, higher quality engine costs closer to £167,000.
Batmobile, also known as the Batmobile. The Cup – Batman Begins
11
Nicknamed the Tumbler, it was designed to be part Lamborghini, part tank.
A street-legal replica sold in the US for $1 million (around £785,000), so if you have six figures to spare you could have your own Batmobile.
But it probably won’t have stealth mode or rocket launchers.
Aston Martin DB5 – James Bond: Golden Finger
11
The most iconic Bond engine that will make you look like a super spy doesn’t come cheap.
You can expect to pay at least £750,000 for a genuine DB5 in good condition, and a lot more than that if you want one of the authentic movie cars.
In fact, a set of four recently went on sale for more than £1 million each.
Pontiac Aztek – Breaking Bad
11
Before starring as Walter White’s car on the hit TV show, the Pontiac Aztek already had a bit of a reputation, and not the good kind.
Its profoundly strange appearance, squat profile, and tacky interior have led to it being labeled one of the best-looking cars of all time.
And this kept the price down – an Aztek can be bought for just £8,000.
DeLorean DMC-12 – Back to the future
11
While you might struggle to reach 90 mph on Britain’s roads, the DeLorean from Back to the Future can still reach 60.
You can get one of these cars with a stainless steel exterior for £50,000.
But with a Peugeot V6 engine, you’ll spend a little more on repairs.
Dodge A100 also known as. Mystery Machine – Scooby-Doo
11
Fans can’t agree whether Scoob and the gang’s iconic Mystery Machine is a Dodge A100 van or a Chevrolet G-series van.
Either way, you can expect to pay at least £15,000 for a serviceable example, and that’s before the cost of moving it to the UK and adding that gorgeous custom flower-power paint job.
Plymouth Valente – The Simpsons
11
Characters in Springfield identified the car as a 1986 Plymouth ‘Junkerolla’, but ardent fans believe the design is actually based on a real-world early ’70s Plymouth Valiant.
Prices for decent, rust-free cars start at around £20,000, but you’ll need to budget a little more for a new paint job to match the peach appearance of the original car.
Toyota Supra – Fast and Furious
11
The Supra’s starring role in the Fast and Furious films made it one of the most valuable ’90s cars for sale.
The best, twin-turbo cars with manual gearboxes, cost £71,000 and that’s before you add all the extra parts and gallons of nitrous needed to live your life a quarter mile at a time.
KITT – Knight
11
The David Hasselhoff-powered engine saw the smart car and Baywatch heartthrob solve crimes.
KITT is an advanced AI-powered Pontiac Firebird Trans Am with numerous features, including a highly durable body and frame.
The most convincing replicas cost at least £40,000, but you’ll also need to budget for the cost of running an old American car with a V8 engine.
Leyland Mini 1000 – Senhor Feijão
11
Unlike Mr Bean, you won’t be able to drive this from a couch on the roof, but you can recreate the drive under the parking beams.
The Leyland Mini 1000 is a legendary small car – with a good quality example costing £10,000.
