The Batmobile from the 1960s BATMAN TV series sold for a staggering £119,000 ($233,000) at a London auction this week.
The infamous black Lincoln Futura had been estimated at £75,000 ($147,000) but attracted a fierce bidding war on Tuesday (27FEB07) to exceed expectations.
Designed in 1955 by a division of the Ford Motor Company, the vehicle was built entirely by hand in Italy.
