The Last of the V8s - Driving the Mad Max Interceptor

The last of the V8s - Driving the Mad Max Interceptor. The movie franchise of MadMax turning 45 this year, and bringing with it another film - Furiosa - Jonny Smith celebrates this Australian ultimate car and motorcycle movie that launched the career of Mel Gibson. Is this the original movie car? No, although that did live in the UK for many years. This is an almost perfect replica built by owner Mark Simpson in his sleepy Somerset village near Glastonbury.
