Cars From The Movies

Some cars are more than just machines. They’re movie stars in their own right. Join us on Saturday 7th November for Cars From The Movies at The Motorist, as we celebrate the legendary vehicles, unforgettable designs and automotive icons that have made their mark on the big screen. From Hollywood blockbusters and cult classics to famous television series, we’re bringing together a fantastic collection of movie-inspired builds, recognisable replicas and the cars that helped create some of cinema’s most memorable moments. ICONS OF THE BIG SCREEN From the DeLorean time machine in Back to the Future and the legendary Aston Martins of James Bond to the unmistakable Ford Mustang from Bullitt, some cars have become every bit as famous as the characters behind the wheel. Cars From The Movies is a celebration of those machines, bringing together vehicles inspired by decades of film and television. Whether it’s American muscle, British classics, Japanese performance cars or something completely unexpected, expect a brilliant mix of automotive nostalgia and big-screen inspiration. FROM FAST & FURIOUS TO THE ITALIAN JOB Few things have shaped car culture quite like the movies. From the Japanese performance icons of Fast & Furious and the Minis of The Italian Job to the outrageous machinery of Mad Max and the unforgettable Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters, cinema has given us some of the most recognisable cars ever created. Throughout the day, we’re looking to bring together a collection of vehicles celebrating these automotive legends, including faithful replicas, film-inspired builds and examples of the very models made famous on screen. Whether you grew up dreaming of owning a particular movie car or simply love seeing something unusual, there should be plenty to discover. BRING YOUR OWN MOVIE ICON Got a car with a connection to the big screen? We’d love to see it! Whether you’ve built a replica of a famous film car, own a vehicle featured in a classic movie or have created something inspired by your favourite franchise, Cars From The Movies is the perfect opportunity to bring it along. From iconic Japanese sports cars and American muscle to British classics, supercars and quirky television favourites, we’re celebrating the vehicles that have captured imaginations across generations. You don’t need a screen-accurate replica to get involved. If your car has a story to tell through film or television, it’s welcome.
