But just what is it that captures our imagination when it comes to cars that share screen time with some of the world\u2019s best-known stars?<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/02_Aston-Martin-DB5_James-Bond.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/02_Aston-Martin-DB5_James-Bond-1024x705.jpg\" alt=\"James Bond Aston Martin DB5\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>It\u2019s not just cars in movies either: TV four-wheeled stars pull on our heart strings, too. Think Starsky and Hutch\u2019s Ford Gran Torino, the 1982 Pontiac Trans Am \u2018Knight Industries Two Thousand\u2019 (KITT), the A-Team\u2019s 1983 GMC Vanudura van, or the \u2018General Lee\u2019 Dodge Charger from \u2018The Dukes of Hazzard\u2019. Heck, even Bodie and Doyle\u2019s Ford Capri 3.0\u00a0S from \u2018The Professionals\u2019 was inspirational to Essex young guns. And who could forget how many times DCI Gene Hunt\u2019s red Audi quattro was fired up in \u2018Ashes to Ashes\u2019?<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/03_Audi-quattro_ashes-to-Ashes_01.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/03_Audi-quattro_ashes-to-Ashes_01-1024x664.jpg\" alt=\"Audi Ashes to ashes\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>But why do we bestow such affection and personalities on these vehicles \u2013 even when some seem to already have emotions of their own? The simple answer is nostalgia. Yep, our fond association with all these four-wheeled wonders comes down to good old-fashioned sentimentality. We can often narrow it down further than that and point to our childhood: <em>that\u2019s<\/em> where the cosy warmth for these vehicles started.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/04_Porsche-917_Le-Mans.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/04_Porsche-917_Le-Mans-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Porsche 917\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>I know, I\u2019ve experienced it. In the late 1970s I was only a little older than a toddler, but still have vivid memories of being taken to the cinema to watch all the Disney movies of the era, including those starring a Pearl White-painted and number 53-wearing 1963 Volkswagen Beetle with a canvas sunroof and fat tyres. The seven year-old me adored Herbie so much, as not only was \u2018he\u2019 a Volkswagen, but \u2018he\u2019 could do all manner of crazy stunts and had \u2018emotions\u2019, too.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/05_Herbie_front.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/05_Herbie_front-1024x835.jpg\" alt=\"Herbie front\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>As time passed, my sentimentality towards the little VW grew, and that number and those stripes became more iconic. I once judged a concours line-up and my inner geek was so excited as an exact replica of a \u2018Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo\u2019 car had been entered and I could examine it at close quarters. While there may be no shame in that, I\u2019ll accept it might be classed as a little weird\u2026<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/06_Herbie_racing-stripes-and-numbers.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/06_Herbie_racing-stripes-and-numbers-1024x655.jpg\" alt=\"Herbie stripes\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>Earlier this year, things stepped up a gear. A friend tipped me off that one of the original, <em>actual<\/em> film Herbies \u2013 \u2018H2\u2019, the Porsche-engined racing car from \u2018The Love Bug\u2019 \u2013 was having a winter sleep-over at the Volkswagen garage where he worked, and asked if I would like to see it. The answer was obvious and when the day came, the excitement was palpable. And when we arrived? Off. The. Scale.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/07_Herbie_rear.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/07_Herbie_rear-1024x723.jpg\" alt=\"Herbie rear\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>And there\u2019s no easy explanation for that. There\u2019s very little reason why a souped-up VW Beetle which starred in the race scenes of a fondly-remembered but dated series of \u2013 let\u2019s face it \u2013 children\u2019s films, should ignite such excitement in a grown man. But that afternoon, I was not only stood next to one of the <em>original<\/em> film Herbies, but also one of my childhood heroes. For those ten minutes or so, I was that seven year-old kid again.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/08_Herbie-and-mini-Herbie.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/influx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/08_Herbie-and-mini-Herbie-1024x1006.jpg\" alt=\"Herbie and mini Herbie\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Why? It comes back to the N-word. Nostalgia, a priceless commodity when it comes to memories, but ironically partly responsible for ever-rising classic car values. And while we\u2019re all as different as the cars we worship, most of us are linked by our sentimentality and wistfulness devotion to one big or small screen car star.
