Features

Do you want to be The Batman? do you really want to be The Batman? Well, you can for just £6,258 per month. That’ show much it will cost to lease Christian Bale’s iconic ‘Tumbler’ Batmobile from the Dark Knight movie series. And that’s not even the most expensive vehicle as the leasing comparison website, Leasing.com, revealed during research into the top 10 movie and TV car icons.

As the latest Batman movie hits cinemas over the weekend, Leasing.com crunched the numbers to find out how much iconic movie and TV vehicles, past and present, would cost to lease if they ever hit the car market on a three-year lease contract.

Topping the list of most expensive cars to lease is James Bond’s Aston Martin DB5. The silver coupe, which was first seen in Goldfinger, with Sean Connery at the wheel, last sold at auction for £3.45 million. Motorists would pay a staggering £28,787 per month to lease the Bond icon.

Whilst for most UK drivers such sums would be beyond their wildest dreams, many could afford Philip Glenisters Audi Quattro from BBC’s Ashes to Ashes. Leasing.com figures show, 2021’s average monthly lease cost was £331.97, the classic Quattro sold at auction for Children In Need in 2014 for £38,958 and would cost a more affordable £321.65 per month.
