We're suckers for the Dodge Charger in the UK. That is no doubt fuelled by formative childhood years being spent in front of the telly on a Saturday afternoon watching a bright orange version leaping across broken bridges in the hands of the Duke boys. The good old boys might 'never meant no harm', but the Dukes of Hazzard means that genuine Chargers are increasingly hard to come by - even more so in the UK.
Still, if you're after a slice of American Fast and Furious motoring then it has to the Charger. Vin has picked a far more subtle matt black example than the Duke boy's orange car, though the massive intakes and supercharger belt poking out through the bonnet underline its potency. We've no doubt it will be sure to hold up American honour when the film reaches general release, but we're not so sure it makes so much sense as a car in the UK. It's huge, so you'll need to find a barn to park it in, and it'll bankrupt you at the petrol pumps. One for the truly committed Fast and Furious fan only. Dodge Charger from £15,000.
