Whilst they're not the  actual  cars that appeared in the films or TV shows, they  are  very convincing lookalikes. The originals are probably all treasured museum exhibits somewhere in the world, which means they probably don't get driven very much anyway. We think these experiences are much more fun!

The term 'muscle car' was coined when American car manufacturers began to produce affordable, high-performance compact saloon cars. It all started with Ford bringing out the Mustang in 1964, which created this new class of car also called 'pony cars'. With big V8 engines and lots of power under the hood, the cars became synonymous with street and drag racing - and many are still produced today!

You will be driving these mighty muscle and movie cars yourself. An instructor will be in the front passenger seat, but it's you who'll have your Gone in 60 Seconds moment as you wheel spin off as fast as Tony Stark in your chosen car.

We've got lots of different cars that are instantly recognisable from films. By far the most popular are the cars that have featured in the Fast & Furious film franchise; from the seminal Nissan Skyline, to the classic Mk1 Escort. There are classics such as Eleanor from Gone in 60 Seconds and replica AC Cobras, a car that has featured in many movies over the years. Then there are the modern movie heroes like the Audi R8 from Iron Man, or the Porsche from Will Smith's Bad Boys. And no movie car collection would be complete without a James Bond Aston or two!

Yep. From Knight Rider and Batman, to the Dukes of Hazard and Starsky & Hutch, we've got cars that'll take you straight back to your misspent youth!

It depends which car you drive. The modern American muscle cars we've got go like the clappers, as you'd expect. Some of these movie cars are vintage classics, so they won't handle the track like a modern supercar, but they are totally nostalgic and great fun to drive. Just imagine cruising along in your 1967 Shelby Mustang or your 1969 Chevy Camaro - you're going to look very cool!

You mean the Dixie horn? Yes! And of course, you will be allowed to sound the horn as part of your movie car driving experience. You won't have to slide over the bonnet and leap through the window to get into Bo and Luke Duke's General Lee though!

In most cases, yes. A full, manual driving licence is the norm for these experiences, but do check each individual page for full details of requirements, including any height or weight restrictions. If you need any help, don't hesitate to contact us by 'phone, email or online chat.

Big, bold V8 muscle cars are the speciality of the American automotive industry, so yes, most of the cars are American in this line up. There are a few exceptions, like the Japanese drifting cars from Fast & Furious and a couple of other famous movie cars.

Nearly all of our experiences take place on private test tracks. But you can drive a vintage muscle car out on the public roads with our classic Mustang hire package. Prepare for lots of admiring glances as you parade around East Sussex in a gleaming Mustang!

Yes! The guys and girls who run these track days are total car fans, so they have painstakingly re-created the finest motors from the small and big screen for you. Right down to the right type of alloy wheels and stunning replica coachwork, you'll properly feel the part when you drive a famous car doppelgänger!

If you're a fan of Transformers, make sure you go for the Ultimate Transformers experience. It features cars like Bumblebee, but also Optimus Prime, the stunning American long-nosed truck!

If you buy a classic muscle car experience when all they want to do is slide round the track in a Toyota Supra like Brian O'Connor in Fast & Furious, don't worry. With intotheblue you can exchange or swap vouchers at any point during their validity period, so in essence, you can't get it wrong.
