Each time a new Batman film hits the silver screen, some viewers and fans are perhaps more excited about seeing the next Batmobile than the Dark Knight himself. This is simply because the Batmobile's cool side is more menacing than Batman. There are several iterations of the Batmobile, and admittedly, the Tim Burton version that appeared in the 1989 and 1992 Batman films has proven to be one of the most popular. If you're aching to drive one (or a look-alike) on the streets, perhaps this stunning Ford Mustang-based replica set to be sold by Bonhams in the United Kingdom could inspire you to don the cape and cowl yourself.

London Motor Museum Is Selling The Replica

Up for grabs is a 1965 Ford "Batmobile" Re-Creation (Chassis no. 5Y85Z147490) with registration no. KBY 411C. While the original Batmobiles used in the 1989 and 1992 Batman films were based on the chassis of a Chevrolet Impala, this recreation was built using a 1965 Ford Mustang as the base.

As soon as this replica was completed in 2016 (by a specialist company in the United Kingdom), it was purchased by the London Motor Museum in Hillingdon, as displayed for the public's eyes to consume. No thanks to some troubles with the local council, the museum has to close in 2019, and now it's selling this astounding Batmobile replica.

If you're wondering if you can drive this Batmobile on the road without legal implications, it appears that you can. Harry Fox-Edwards, an expert with Bonhams, told the Daily Mail that it might be legal to drive this awesome Batmobile on the road, since the vehicle has number plates and other features that suggest so.

Nevertheless, if you're wondering if this replica can drive on the road, it can. It has an actual powerplant—the original 5.7-liter V8 engine that was installed in the 1965 Mustang base since new. Apparently, there was a video showing the engine being fired up, which means this Batmobile could be operational when taken to the road.
