Impressive list there stig, most impressive.

Title: Re: Cars the Stars use to drive
Post by: cosworth151 on February 01, 2007, 10:26:06 AM

Two slight clarifications:

The Avengers: Emma Peel drove the Lotus, John Steed drove several different mid to late '20s Bentleys, later replaced with an early Rolls.

The Prisoner: The Mini Mokes were in The Village. Prior to that, he drove a Lotus 7, registration #KAR120C

Jay Leno: I'd swear that he's almost got one of everything! The last I read, he's got about 80 - 90 cars and almost as many bikes.

Other than that, a great list!

And the best bike that Jay Leno owns, has a helicopter engine in it.........

I bet he can take off with that!

Sorry............

And you think my jokes are bad.........geez stig.......

He did admit that once at a set of lights a car kept creeping closer to get a better look despite him trying to keep at a safe distance........bottom line,
helicopter engine exhaust 1 - plastic bumper on car 0 (and severly deformed from the melting)

I sure do remember Route 66 -Todd and Buzz in the Vette.

The TV Batmobile was a George Barris re-do of a '50s Lincoln show car. He also did:

Grampa Munster - Cobra powered coffin - TV

The Green Hornet - Custom Imperial (The Black Beauty)

While we're into old US TV

The Monkees- Dean Jeffries custom 66 GTO phaeton

Joe Friday, Dragnet - 54 Ford Mianline  ('50s)

Joe Friday, Dragnet - 67 Ford Fairlane ('60s)

Joe Friday, Dragnet - Yugo GV (Film) "The cutting edge of Serbo-Croatian technology"

Adam 12, 1st season - 68 AMC Matador

Adam 12, rest of series - 69 Plymouth Belvedere I

The A-Team - GMC short wheelbase van

Knight Rider - custom Pontiac Firebird (Knight Industries 2000)

Maxwell Smart, Get Smart - Sunbeam Tiger

Harry O - Austin Healey Sprite Mk 3

The Rockford Files - Pontiac Firebird Esprit

Miami Vice - Fake Ferrari Daytona body on a Vette, later a real Testa Rossa

Frank Bullit (Steve McQueen) 67 Mustang GT fastback - film -Best car chase EVER!

And here's one for fans of old US car shows:

Hardcastle and McCormick - The Coyote - a VW bellypan kit car with a Porsche engine. The engine sounds were dubbed in from a V-12 Ferrari!

Remember that one, dare?  Brian Keith and Daniel Hugh Kelly

When Inspector Morse ended, they had a contest and gave away the Jag.

We've been getting a series on BBC America called "Life on Mars." Set in the mid-'70s. Ford Granada Police car.

Another from the BBC - Keeping Up Appearances: Onslo's Dog - Ford Granada doghouse.
