Has anyone else seen the Back to the Future inspired Phones 4 U advert? I don't know how to 'embed' links unfortunately,but check out the name on the boat next to the helicopter on the pad! :lol:

Great publicity for the time machine and great boat name

Haha..thats great...and i guess the alley way where we first see the car is not unlike the alley where docs lands in 2015 BTTF part2...!!!!

That's great, had not seen that anywhere so thanks for posting it up. Out of interest who's car was it?
Chris

I was wondering that myself? Its BTTF 1 car with plutonium chamber so might be Mike B ex car now owned by Tom. Can any one confirm?

it's an American car and apparently it's owned by someone called..... Ryan "Rakoon" Martin !!!!

Now I look closely you can see it's an American set with just the 'odd' black cab and UK road signs put in the set.
Chris

I was just thinking the same Chris. I should have known it wasn't filmed over here

Well, that would explain the odd placement of the Dead End road sign

I remember that name. he tried to raise money via kickstarter to do his conversion:

guess he did it somehow.

He works closely with the Temporal guys. He's got a smashing car! Rumour has it (fact) they were after the most official replica and couldn't find it in the UK so had to fly all the way to the US!

They ought to have……PHONED…. the official UK club then, and we could have saved them some money!

I saw that the ad features both Rakoons car and the TMR personal car

You Saw correct Both beauties. They even used real special effects on Rakoons car when the rear wheels spark in the alley way, pretty cool stuff.
