Batmobile (Batman Begins)
During the filming of 'Batman Begins' the movie makers 
                        used 8 different Batmobile's (called the Tumbler), four 
                        of which were drivable and surprisingly rapid. The Batmobiles 
                        were powered using 340 horsepower GM 350 V8's giving them 
                        a 0-60 time of around 5.3 seconds and a theoretical top 
                        speed of 220 miles per hour. The design is based on a 
                        cross between a Lamborghini 
                        Countach and a Humvee. The designer actually bought 
                        an airfix model of both the Countach and Humvee and played 
                        around with the models until the desired look was achived.
The four massive rear tyres are 44 inch 'super swampers' 
                        and the front axle is nonexistent instead the front wheels 
                        are on separate spars.
