Londoners enjoying the view over the Thames were left scratching their heads after a flying car appeared in the sky over the London Bridge last night.

Well, almost.

A helicopter was seen at 7pm yesterday carrying a car which appeared to have all its lights on.

The bizarre sight caused many people to take to Twitter - capturing the flying car and a beautiful sunset over the capital in the process.

Seb Dance, MEP, wondered on Twitter what all the fuss was about, writing: "Extreme approach by one council to parking violations?"

Twitter user Brett B-Smith commented on the stunt: "So yes ... Just watched a helicopter carrying a car along the Thames. Standard London evening."
