Had to laugh the other day, now being the proud owner of RHD VIN 510 I was asked about the car by a neighbour and his kids, the inevitable question was asked "Does it have a flux capacitor, so to get out of the question I said no as the car was a rare right hand drive model and they only fitted them in the LHD American cars, I should have known better than to tell a little white lie as the lad came straight back and asked if they ever made a RHD flux capacitor, well there's a question I was totally flumexed for a reply but it gave us all a laugh, if anyone has the answer to this please let me know.

Chris slowly raises his hand.....looking around akwardly, and slightly sheepishly, and admits. "I've got that app for my iPod".

To ensure my Geek credentials :wink: :lol: .
You can, I understand get a DMC speedo app for Iphone/Ipad. Like the digital one in BTTF. Works off the GPS. Now this would come in handy at the moment as my D** speedo angle drive has bit the dust again (Well it lasted 5 years so I guess that's not to bad).
