With just a few clicks, an ordinary weekend trip can feel like saving the world or a nostalgic return to the 1990s. With private owners renting their cars on HoppyGo, it’s possible to find unexpected gems in our selection!
BMW M5 - Mission: Impossible - Fallout
As we all know all too well, Tom Cruise’s favorite form of transportation is running. It doesn’t matter where or why – the moment he’s in trouble in the film, he starts running madly from point A to point B. His choice of car is therefore even more interesting when he has to get behind the wheel. And with his latest choice, the action hero certainly doesn’t disappoint! His favourite car is the BMW M5, which, with its 600 horsepower, is the ideal tool to save the world.

Mini Cooper - Mr. Bean
When you say British legend, most people’s first thought is James Bond, but that’s not the only thing the land of dry humour and teatime at five has to offer. Mr Bean’s Mini Cooper offers at least a similarly iconic experience at a much more affordable price than James Bond’s Aston Martin.
The car that Bean, as a legendary action star, drove from the bonnet. A car that was scrapped by a tank. This car has simply seen more than some of the bigger names on this list. Driving it is like driving a piece of history and moving into the world of Mr. Bean. One owner even packed his Mini Cooper with Bean’s Teddy Bear as a passenger. Not to mention, even without Bean, it’s a gorgeous car that’s perfect for romantic trips for two. Even in the more modern versions we offer on HoppyGo.
Chevrolet Camaro - Transformers
The complete opposite of the Mini Cooper in a very similar colour scheme is the Chevrolet Camaro (Bumblebee) from the Transformers movies. This true American muscle car has quickly become an iconic vehicle that you just want to drive at least once. This yellow Camaro doesn’t even need a Hollywood star to drive it, as it has achieved star status on its own.
Bumblebee is a fan-favorite character who serves as a humanizing robotic hero in the movies and as a glimpse into the mind of a witty autobot. The Camaro combines strength and elegance in one, just like Bumblebee in the movies. Its design exudes adventure and performance, which is exactly what you can experience when you rent one for a weekend drive. One owner even has it in yellow and black!
BMW X5 - Locke
But maybe you’re an important person who has important things to deal with. You need an important car for that. Just like Ivan Locke (Tom Hardy) needed it in Locke. Hardy has to save his whole life from the driver’s seat. Literally. The whole film takes place in a beautiful and powerful BMW X5. Which makes sense, because it’s one of BMW’s most popular models. It’s just a reliable car, ready to ease you through the toughest tasks you’ll face that day.
Lamborghini Gallardo - The Simpsons
Admittedly, Homer’s classic, pink sedan would have fit nicely on this list. But it’s tough when the Lamborghini Gallard stole the show in its episode. Yes, at times it presented itself a little too flamboyantly (it still can’t fly, maybe the next model?), but still the hilariously renamed Lamborgotti Fasterossa stirred up life in Springfield like few things have. And no wonder – few cars can say that driving one is “the experience of a lifetime”. Homer may not be along for your ride, but as far as actual passengers go, few would pass up the opportunity to be at least a passenger in something like this.

Audi R8 - Iron Man
He’s a genius, a millionaire, a womanizer, a philanthropist… but what does Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) drive? We’re talking about a man who literally creates his own vehicles. And if he started a car company, his cars would have everything from toasters to anti-aircraft guns built into them. So if he has to choose a foreign-made car, he knows exactly what he’s doing. And his choice was clear – the Audi R8.
Yes, a millionaire can’t be expected to buy cars economically, and if he did, would it even be fun? Fun also defines the Audi R8 perfectly. This car is like Tony Stark, a car that is primarily a celebrity. And driving it is tantamount to a big, Hollywood party. Fortunately, you don’t have to stop the house to become a star yourself. Just a few clicks and you’ll have it home for the weekend.
Pontiac Firebird - Knight Rider
The 1980s were a different time. Perms looked good on everyone, we all thought for some reason that Michal David’s keyboards were the future of music and David Hasselhoff was dashing through the streets solving crimes in his talking car. The car was called KITT and it was a real friend. He saved Hasselhoff’s life more times than in the 11 seasons of the Baywatch. If you don’t mind that KITT on HoppyGo has a different color and a few cosmetic adjustments, definitely take him for a spin.
Piaggio Vespa - Roman Holiday
What comes to mind when you think of summer? The sun? Water? Uncle Eugene in a tiny swimsuit? But what about a story about a princess played by Audrey Hepburn and a worldly journalist played by Gregory Peck? The story of their adventure as they ride through the streets of Rome on the legendary Vespa. The Vespa is not only the symbol of the film, but also the symbol of the perfect holiday. Scooters are plentiful on HoppyGo, but you’ll find this one here in a beautiful, modern design.
Bonus: Volvo XC60 - Desperate Housewives
And finally, something extra! The Volvo XC60 plays an important role in one of the most important TV series of all time – Desperate Housewives. The show that raised a whole generation of people who are now hardly surprised that the nice old lady in apartment 712 is hiding a dead body in the freezer. In Desperate Housewives, Susan Mayer (Teri Hatcher) drives a Volvo XC60, and the poor Volvo, for example, is forced to watch as its owner is handcuffed. You won’t see anything like that happen to you in this car from HoppyGo, but you can still have other adventures in it. There’s time to go shopping in it, uncover neighborhood secrets, and find a mysterious, sexy handyman who has a gun permit.
What is HoppyGo?
HoppyGo is a car sharing platform that connects those who want to rent a car occasionally with car owners who do not use their cars on a daily basis. Users can thus use cars that would otherwise be parked in parking lots. On the other hand, owners can solve the costs of owning a car in this way or secure a side income.
The platform includes over 1500 cars of all categories and brands. As a user, you have the opportunity to choose between luxury and affordable cars, sports cars, vans and camper vans, family cars or city cars. In short, you will find everything here.
