edited May 2007 in Commuting chat
I don't particularly like cars or the way cars are sort of glorified in car commercials when it's really a load of old ballcocks.

Anyway one of my most favorite car commercials is this:

I have one of my least favourite running at the moment although I haven't seen it today but hopefully I can find it on U Tube.

What the hell is this about?

    She is the other driver's wife. she hides her lover and he hides his!
    don't know what it's got to do with car's just maybe advertising the seats go way back.

    Some of those were good, indeed.

    This Golden Oldie is a favourite of mine; it's funny now because the car looks like something made in East Germany before the wall came down.

    New advert very clever skoda but can get nauseating.

    Slightly off topic but I foud this and it really shook me up.

    Someone jumps off the other loco and the signal goes back to red just before the collision.
