Yes, all made of confectionery, some parts cake, other parts jelly. Never eaten though as it was not fit for human consumption after being uunder the lights.
And as for the real car, just imagine that it is the same design and engineering as a Volkswagen and the steel it is made from could well be a recycled Mercedes.

Yes it really was made of cake and sweets and the people who baked it actually ate it after the advert was filmed

Yes! The BBC did a piece about it a little while ago:

Its all real, but it took so long to make that it wasn't fit for human consumption by the end! Good adver though...

Yes.
Go to http://www.newfabia.co.uk/ and click on "'Baking of' documentary" at the bottom for a video about making the advert.

read about it in nuts men's mag and they said it cost £500.000 to make the cake/jelly car but no one ate it as it was inedible due to being under the lights for soo long, it took a few days to put together.

Yes it was and it cost 50grand to make it!. It took over a week to make and then had to be destroyed. Due to health and safety it could not be eaten.
