Re: seen this and had to post it
Wonderful, gloriously bad taste. 
I was thinking it must make a mess of the interior, before realising how hideous it is to start with.....
I already have nightmares about cats.....
Many years ago I had a Lotus Europa Special, which the neighborhood moggie seemed to prefer kipping on, as I guess it was warmer than steel bodywork. Slept in one morning, dashed out, jumped in, started up & drove straight off without looking around. (Safe enough bet as I lived at the end of a cul-de-sac). So I gets to the end of the street before looking in the mirror & seeing cat, very like the one in the ad, (before sunroof), behind me.
On reflection, it was probably desperately clinging on & had a set of front claws hooked into each of the air intake vents in the engine cover, but it looked like it was about to pounce. Not only that, but it completely filled the view from the rear window - Europa's rear window is about 4" high & it's just behind your shoulder.
I crapped myself, thinking it was a tiger, cos it looked hooooge. Slammed on the anchors, moggie nose-butts rear window, performs a graceful triple somersault over the roof, lands in the road in front of the car, then vanishes.....
Never did it again.

i don't really get the meaning of this ad, unless otherwise they wanted to highlight the sunroof badly.

It's supposed to show that this particular flavour of Ka is "mean" and "nasty" and "doesn't tolerate cats".
I love cats - so I hate this advert.
I do, however, hate pigeons - they crap on my car SO MUCH - so I prefer this advert:

<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang
