Well, not exactly...

From the Times article:

A workable flying car has been the inventors’ holy grail for half a century, but the reality has remained elusive. Just ask Paul Moller, the Canadian engineer whose four-seater Skycar is still at the prototype stage after 40 years and more than £100m of development.

and from the Moller website:

Moller International is currently not taking deposits on aircraft.  

That being said, I would prefer a functional fixed-wing skycar myself.

The tiny little bitty probem with that one he hasn’t been building and selling his cars for several years. Picture an amateur trying to build an Osprey tilt rotor helicopter.
