A boat left a holidaymaker in hysterics as it is dead ringer for Mater the tow truck from the Disney Pixar movie Cars.
Daša Erhardtová rented out the vessel with five relatives.
She was stunned when she boarded the brown vessel in Dubrovnik, Croatia.
She thought the face created by the two portholes for eyes on the front seats creating a mouth at the bow looked familiar.
Then she realised the boat was a doppelganger of the cartoon tow truck from the Disney Pixar films.
Daša, of Key West, near Miami, Florida, US, said: “We rented the boat from Dubrovnik.
“Me and my family, six of us.
“The captain’s name was Felix and he took us around the area and showed us three island close by to Dubrovnik.
“It was actually a coincidence to meet Mater
“Because we booked a different kind of boat, but some difficulties occurred , so they switched the boats last minute.
“It was a very old boat but super charming
“Very sweet and cute like Mater.
”We will never forget the trip.”
Pal Zo Westwood said: “Mater from Cars.
Sara Fetter added: “I instantly saw Mater when I saw this too.”
Rachel Hardcastle said: “Mater’s brother, Tugboat Tony.”
John West said: “A Pixar movie.”
Mater is a brown tow-truck based on a 1956 Chevrolet.
The goofy, fictitious character lived in the remote town of Radiator Springs in the Cars movies.
He became best friends with racing car Lightning McQueen – voiced by Owen Wilson.
There were three Cars filmed from 2006 to 2017 and the franchise made £350million worldwide.
