Google street?

Towing the RIB home a few weeks ago and came accross a google street map car, just wandering if my RIB will be on google street or not. No UK streets on show so will have to wait and see.

Sorry about the delay. It was a dark coloured smallish car? fiesta, 206 type with a great big camera attachment on its roof with 4 camera's each pointing in a different direction. Had a sticker on the front door with 'google' on it.
