Retro Ads on Youtube

Post by teamster1975 »

Well it's a typically wet bank holiday monday so I've been messing about on t'internet and got into searching youtube :lol:

Escort Mk3 Car of the year!
The NEW Ford Sierra!
Capri 2.8 :twisted:
"Allegro, the new driving force of Austin!" :lol: :lol: :lol:
Cavalier, "better by design" :roll:

And not forgetting the original 406 advert of course! :cheesy: :cheesy:

Scary thing is I can remember them all (apart from the Allegro!)
1996 406 1.8LX Got a bad case of hydro lock!
1996 406 Executive 2.0 Turbo XU10J2TE No longer hangin' on in there :(
1997 Honda CB500V
2003 Volvo V40 1.8 GDi SE killed by a nutter in a beemer 5 series
2008 Mondeo 2.0 TDCi Titanium X

I used to stop whatever I was doing to watch that 406 Ad. Only ever got to see the full length once while it was on TV.
Since that advert, I always wanted a 406.

The earliest ad I can truely recall is this one by ford:

And who can blame me... catchy tune!
