The movie-inspired cars you can buy

The cars that made it from silver screen to showroom

Everybody knows that the car is as important as the star in many films, and some marques have become forever linked with famous movie cars. Aston Martin, for example, would survive without Bond's patronage, but an association with the world's most famous secret agent adds a certain mystique to the brand.

  • Renault ZOE Star Wars – Han Solo may be happier behind the control yoke of a Corellian light freighter than a small electric hatchback, but that hasn't prevented Renault from dedicating a special-edition ZOE to Star Wars. Yes, the ZOE
