Mad Max Car Auction

"Mad Max Fury Road" is an iconic blockbuster movie that features dramatic action punctuated by some crazy custom cars and trucks as they speed across the desert. During filming, many of them got wrecked in the process, but 13 of the epic vehicles will soon be up for auction with Lloyds. The custom-built and highly modified vehicles are all fully-functioning with features seen in the film. Cars include the mighty War Rig tanker truck, the massive Gigahorse, the Jag Flamer, the F-250 Saber Tooth, and the iconic Interceptor (driven by Mad Max), a 1973 Ford Falcon XB lifted with chunky wheels and powered by a twin-supercharged V8. The auction begins on September 26th via live stream.

Very few of those vehicles survived, and it is extremely rare that an authentic Camel Trophy veteran comes up for sale. Built by the Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations team specifically for the 1998 Tierra Del Fuego Camel Trophy event, this 1...

1966 Jaguar XJ13 Recreation

The 1966 Jaguar XJ13 was designed to compete in the renowned 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance event, but the project stalled and only one prototype was made. As such, it is impossible to come across a genuine example available for purchase, which means if you want one, you are going to have to get a replica. That is where New Zealand’s Rod Tempero comes into play. This XJ13 is an identical copy of the original down to the last nut and rivet, an exquisitely-made repli...
