What fan-favourite film cars are worth now – including the Batmobile and Scooby Doo’s Mystery Machine

FAN-FAVOURITE film cars live long in the memory of our most popular movies and some die-hard fans can even buy them.

Classics like Batman, Scoobie Doo, and James Bond all have iconic cars attached to them.

That's made some of the motors incredibly expensive as fans want to get behind the seat like their favourite characters.

 has done the maths and worked out exactly how much you’d need to splash out to own .

Volkswagen Beetle – Herbie

11

The puckish little Volkswagen Beetle wowed audiences with the remarkable ability to drive itself in the 1968 classic.

Cheaper Beatles could be yours for less than £10,000, but a more authentic better quality motor goes for closer to £167,000.

Batmobile aka. The Tumbler – Batman Begins

11

Nicknamed the Tumbler, it was designed to be part Lamborghini, part tank.

A street-legal replica was sold in the US for $1million (around £785,000), so if you’ve got six figures to spare, you could own your own Batmobile.

But, it probably won't have the stealth mode or rocket launchers.

You can expect to pay at least £750,000 for a genuine DB5 in good condition, and much more than that if you want one of the authentic movie cars.

Indeed, a set of four recently went on sale for over £1million each.

Pontiac Aztek – Breaking Bad

11

Before starring as Walter White’s car in the hit TV show, the Pontiac Aztek already had something of a reputation, and not the good kind.

Its deeply awkward looks, dumpy profile and tacky interior saw it labelled as one of the worst-looking cars of all time.

And that's kept the price down - an Aztek can be bought for only £8,000.

DeLorean DMC-12 – Back to the Future

11

While you might struggle to get it to 88mph on Britain's roads, the DeLorean from Back to the Future can still get to 60.

You can get one of these cars with its stainless steel outside for £50,000.

But with a Peugeot-sourced V6 engine you'll be spending a fair bit more on repairs.

Dodge A100 aka. Mystery Machine – Scooby-Doo

11

Fans can't quite agree whether Scoob and the gang's iconic Mystery Machine is a Dodge A100 van or a G-series Chevrolet 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 flower-power custom paint job.

Plymouth Valiant – The Simpsons

11

Characters in Springfield have 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 around £20,000, but you'll need to budget a little extra for a respray to match the original car's peachy complexion.

Toyota Supra – The Fast and the Furious

11

The Supra's starring role in the Fast and Furious films has now made it one of the most valuable '90s cars on sale.

The best ones, twin-turbo cars with manual gearboxes, cost £71,000 and that's before you add all the extra go-fast parts and the gallons of nitrous needed to live your life a quarter mile at a time.

K.I.T.T. – Knight Rider

11

David Hasselhoff-driven motor saw the smart car and the Baywatch hunk solving crimes.

KITT is an AI-advanced Pontiac Firebird Trans Am with numerous features, including a highly durable shell 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 V8-powered American car.

Unlike Mr Bean, you won't be able to drive this from a sofa on the roof, but you will be able to recreate driving under parking beams.

The Leyland Mini 1000 is a legendary small car - with a good quality example costing £10,000.
