Top 10 Favourite Movie Cars

For all you movie buffs out there, here is a list of top 10 movie cars as listed by Screenjunkies.com;

1. The very stylish Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Eleanor in ‘Gone in 60 Seconds’: So much more interesting than Angelina Jolie. This was actually built for the film by the great Chip Foose - you may know him as the main guy from 'Overhaulin'.

2. The Batmobile in ‘Batman’ - the car from the 1990's films (even though the 60's car is now quite popular.

 



3. The absolutely gorgeous Ferrari 250GT California Spider  in ‘Ferris Bueller's Day Off’ and my personal second favourite car of all time. I just need about £5 million so that I can buy one!.

4. The much abused Ford LTD Country Squire Family Wagon in ‘National Lampoons Vacation - Uh. Really???!

5. The quintessentially cool 1968 Ford Mustang Fastback in ‘Bullit’.

6. The classic 1970 Dodge Charger in ‘The Fast and the Furious'. I love the new Dodge Charger in 'Transformed' also.

7. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang from the popular kids film – and a good deal more convincing perfomance than Dick Van Dykes British accent – again.

8. The next car is an obscure choice and is the 1966 Alfa Romeo Spider in ‘The Graduate’. Funny, I’ve seen quite a few sunsets in my time on this planet, but if someone had asked me prior to this list what the car was in this film, I couldn't have told them – and I’ve seen it about four times.

9. The 1977 AMC Pacer in ‘Waynes World’. Just as popular for the head banging scene to Bohemian Rhapsody.

10. The DeLoreon in ‘Back To The Future’ is without doubt my favourite movie car of all time. I can't think of any other car that has been so iconic and remained so popular for so long.  In fact when you say DeLoreon, you think of Back To The Future - and when you think Back To The Future, you immediately think of the DeLoreon.

And if you're not convined, then park up next to a DeLoreon in any Porsche, Ferrari or Aston Martin (except a DB5 of course) and you'll soon feel like the unpopular kid at the school prom!
