Harv

Harv is a talent agent that represented Lightning McQueen in the racing industry before he received a new team. He is portrayed as a strict figure that does not allow any nonsense, often scolding his clients if they try to focus on anything other than racing. Never seen on-screen, McQueen speaks to Harv via his speakerphone in Cars when he and Mack are on route to the tiebreaker race, and again when Mack is in Radiator Springs to pick up McQueen. Consequently, little is known of Harv's character except that he threatened to have Mack fired if he didn't get McQueen into his trailer when he is in the town.
==Profile and biography==
===Pixarpedia===
*Vehicle Type: It doesn't get stated in the movie however, Jeremy Clarkson (Harv's voice actor in the UK) argues that Harv would be a 1979 Ford Granada Ghia
*Color: Unknown
*Occupation: Agent (and your friend)
*Bio: As Lightning McQueen's agent and self-styled friend, Harv's principal interests are making money and then making more money. Only ever available on the phone, and taking ten percent of everything Lightning earns, Harv is not a car with high morals. His suave voice and choice of words might sound charming, but Harv doesn't care about his clients. He didn't even bother to watch Lightning's big race for the Piston Cup!

*Since Harv is voiced by Piven in the U.S. and Clarkson in the U.K., some of his lines are different in the different versions (although the DVD and Blu-ray subtitles in the U.K. still show the lines in the U.S.).
