In Reply to: BMW needs to get the ad co. that does VW... posted by MV on November 20, 2000 at 09:40:35:


There have been several VW ads in the past year or so that have made me laugh and have caused my wife to look at me and say "hey, that's you..."

1. The Jetta ad where the guy parks at a supermarket and walks away only to come diving back into the picture to make a saving tackle of an errant shopping cart.

2. Ad in which we see a guy detailing a black Passat in the driveway. Owner of the house comes out in his bathrobe to pick up his newspaper, looks quizzically at the the detailer, and asks "what are you doing?"

3. The overhead view of a car pulling into a half empty parking lot and grabbing a spot near some other cars only to re-think the situation and rapidly back out and move to the spot as far away from the other cars as possible.

and the one that nearly killed my wife...
4. Guy in his driveway reading the owners manual for his Jetta/Passat (? don't remember -- I was laughing too hard). he says "oooh!" and runs in to drag the wife in bathrobe out to show her how he can lower all four windows by turning and holding the key in the driver's door lock. He turns around grinning like a kid on Christamas morning to hear the front door slam behind the wife.

All excellent.
