There's a company in East Yorkshire called Z Cars who've built three of the Burton Batmobiles. See here for an example. And i know the owner. He won't give me a discount though...

OK, so its a long way to go, and a long time to go at the current rate of progress....
Just keep the peddle to the metal and nobody will notice that you are not in full uniform, and you wont get (too) wet.

Well there's at least one replica in California, somewhere.

While we're on the subject of outrageously expensive replicas (Only $55,000.00):

Once again it's Poet's Day
And so in rhyme we have our say.

It's much too soon to win this race,
But if we post at a steady pace
We'll make the time go pretty quick
And hit the number Vic has picked.

Heros and Villains from old TV shows
Grace these pages as we go
We remember who made us laugh,
Roll on the floor in mirth, we gasp

For breath, for we have laughed so loud
Our neighbors hear us from their yards
And wonder, have we lost our minds?
But no, we've just gone back in time

To when there seemed much less to fear
No threats to people we hold dear
From worldly cares we'll take a break
And laugh until our bellies ache.

Good one Don, Thanks.

@ Chris S: It's said Frank loved the role and had a blast with It. But then He looks perfectly enigmatic too.

To our resident bard we show our thanks
By banging steins upon the planks
May all enjoy their tarry here
And hoist their choice of tasty BEER!

While Vic drives his Batmibile.
The sun gets high and hot as hell.
However, we sit in our beer garden
and toast his sweating indulgance, beg pardon.
It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues

To our resident bard we show our thanks
By banging steins upon the planks
May all enjoy their tarry here
And hoist their choice of tasty BEER!

That should be bards (plural), Shipmate. (8{)

Bard's a title I'll not claim
For I've come recent to this game
While skill improves with ev'ry try
It still takes work to make it fly.

And still I learn from Sir John Clark
T'was he who led me on this lark
Along with Angela, Mrs. K,
Whom I intend to meet one day

And others here, yes, that's the plan
In person, not in Callaghan's
Until that time, we'll all meet here,
And share with each a round of Cheer.

I hasten, chastened to the fray

To all the wordsmiths in this place
I cry your pardon and beg grace!
