Bullitt

I went to the UK Slot Car Festival today with Andy and bought (and sold!) some more cars.  I'd been interested in Pioneer slot cars since trying out their 68 Mustang Notchbacks at a show last year.  The Notchbacks are nice but what I really wanted was this pair...

... Steve McQueen as Bullitt driving the 1968 Ford Mustang 390 GT...

...and the assassins driving the black Dodge Charger R/T.

These cars famously raced around the streets of San Francisco in the 1968 film "Bullitt".  They are highly detailed cars.  The assassin even has his gun half-covered by his coat...

...and it's a pretty good likeness of Steve McQueen...

They are both very quick and make another great pair to race on the Highwood Circuit - although no petrol station for the Charger to crash into and explode!
