Married a kitten, just as she turned into a cat…… was the follow up I think

I think that applies to all marketing tbh.

The PC crowd won't even allow comparisons between motors. Why not?

Car adverts are cack, more about gizmo's/tech than the actual drive, and of course image. This is the only car advert can remember liking, owned one of them a few years later after the advert.

99% of all adverts are tosh. The only ones I take seriously are the ones...,that don't take themselves seriously, a bit of humour around an advert works wonders

In that respect, in terms of car adverts, I still remember the Clio ones with "Nicole" and "Papa", even though they were 25 years ago.

Estelle Skornik ("Nicole") became quite famous for a while. It turned out that, when she made the adverts, she couldn't actually drive.

Not pretentious, not about lifestyle, in fact the car isn’t even fully built.

I love good advertising for cars, there are two I remember well:

Peugeot 405

But this is my absolute favourite, I'm cheating a little as it's a promo for the Isuzu Gemini called "Dancing in Paris" that someone has turned into a MV. Enjoy 😊

Renault Clio mk1 one of the best cars we ever owned.

One of my favourites, but then I was driving a Hilux Surf at the time.

When I had a telly, the thing that amused me about car adverts was that most of the cars shown were L/H drive, the models shown were of the top of the range ones and the roads they were driving on were empty.
Where are these roads pray - ?

I understand at one time Ford was shooting publicity/brochure photos (maybe adverts too) using cars with registration plates which would look okay if reversed....... thus they could reverse the LHD image to make it appear RHD Clever- Eh?

This was quite common for a few years.

See, it's a bit of a silly, almost boring advert, until it hit to the last scene, then I literally laughed out loud.

My favourite is that Skoda they made out of cake and jelly. Mmmmmm.
