Flying Cars - just over a year away

[The Moose]

So, sitting watching Back to the Future part 2 and they've got flying cars in 2015. So looking forward to getting my hands on one of those bad boys

... and it couldn't look more like Del Trotter's Reliant van if they tried.

I heard the MOD are looking into them as an F-35B stop-gap solution.

I'd just be happy with a hover board (but only a Pitbull as I'd like mine to work on water!)

I also quite liked the hover-converted (and converted to convertible!) E24 633CSi (iirc) outside the cafe (gets a rear light smashed by a baseball bat).

I thought it looked like a Fiesta with wings but I definitely see the resemblance to the Reliant now.

Here's one that actually exists!
