A former car dealer in France has built an impressive collection of movie cars, with some of the fleet available for short rentals.
The collection, which is housed in the Movie Cars Central museum in Etrechy, approximately 30 miles south of Paris, was formed by Franck Galiegue and includes over 40 vehicles. There are vehicles like those that appeared in various “Jurassic Park” and “Fast and the Furious” films, as well as the “Herbie” Beetle and “Back to the Future” DeLorean. Naturally there's also a Batmobile, in this case a replica of thepublished last week, Galiegue said one of his most prized collections is a Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu that Ryan Gosling drove in 2011's"Drive." Three of the cars were used for filming.
"I wanted to do something like a museum, but it must be a living thing, so that people can drive the cars, either here on our terrain or even on the road," Galiegue said in his interview with Reuters. Galiegue hasn't finished growing his collection. Three new vehicles are on the way including one from the 1987 “RoboCop” movie.
