So I happened to be arbitrarily bumbling around London’s west end and lo and behold:

The theatre was closed, presumably for a screening, so that’s the best I could do..

Replica?

Not sure.. It’s the theatre they use for all the big premieres, so it’s hard to tell if it is or isn’t the real deal. To be honest, I haven’t really taken too good a look at the one in the trailers to see any difference..

It’s a replica. It might be an officially-produced replica built by Sony, but it’s not one of the screen-used cars.

It looks like the carriage lights on the C pillar, the landau bars, and the black body molding strip are different at least. I think I’d agree with DVC. 😉

It might be the replica I’d been hearing about of recent, one that’d appeared at a recent convention, and was (if I’m not mistaken) present for the [Paul Feig](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/people/paul-feig) signing event at Forbidden Planet.

The car is scheduled to be at Leicester Square until the 26th of June (a shame, as it makes so much sense to have it there for when the film is released).

The rack looks fairly accurate and the gumball base is contoured to the roof making me think it’s probably an authorized copy but its the wrong year or model car.

Even though it’s not screen-used, it might not be a bad idea to get some good photos of the car. It’s kind of like the Universal Studios Ecto-1 in that regard.

Parked in the cinema? Now there’s something strange in the neighbourhood…
