Dante’s Inferno! the weekend starts now

So in the deepest darkest corner of a dimly lit rickety old wooden shack by the side of a book shelf full of dusty old paper backs with dog eared pages, let us be your  small yet slightly imposing house spider, as we spin for you a web of mega cinematic fortitude so we can catch fat,  juicy retro movie moments then we'll scurry away and bask in the celluloid wonder.

We love cars here at Truffleshuffle, but you know what we love more? Retro cars! Cars from Television and Movies do get us all revved up and ready for action in classic 80s style. Who here has dreamt of driving The A Team van? (Move over B.A, let me drive!) Or thinking up ways to catch the bad guys whilst in The Mystery Machine? We sure have! Well if you’re in Birmingham next Tuesday (27th) and you love cars then you might not want to miss this event.

The Cube - Birmingham’s iconic landmark will be welcoming 8 of the coolest (and they are pretty cool) cars on Tuesday 27th August (tomorrow!) from 2-6pm.

Cars such as The A Team Van, The 1966 Batmobile, The General Lee, The Ghostbusters car and The Mystery Machine will be there. Ah sounds AMAZING or what!

Whilst you won’t be able to drive the cars (sorry all you wannaB.A's) you can have your picture taken with them. Maybe get your photo taken whilst wearing one of our cool retro tees ay? *nudge nudge wink wink *

The cars will be in Birmingham on Tuesday to promote The Cube’s fully automated car park. Have you seen how it works? Robot parking at it’s finest which is pretty darn cool.
