VW touareg advert

Can anyone shed some light on the ad. A 747 is being towed by a VW, I have noticed the engine config is modified like a B52. Is it a test aircraft or a movie prop.

It's at Dunsfold in the UK (where they used to build Harriers), a few miles west of London. The 747 was modified for Casino Royale. If you see the Brit driving program 'Top Gear' in Aus, that's filmed there and you sometimes see the 747 in the background.
