Gday...

Jest coz it is on the internet doesn't mean all you see is as it really is -

The trailer in the stunt is actually a converted car with its own 1.4 litre engine, which pulls the car in the video and not vice versa. The trailer is equipped with transparent foil so that the driver sitting in the trailer might look out, but people cannot see inside.

It was simply a promotional ad for VW.

Cheers - John

The caravan backing and the VW trickery are both great to see. I wish I could do as well!
