Any adverts for short term money lenders. They either show trendy people living an affluent lifestyle (who don't look like they would need to borrow money) or even worse the spitting image esque old people puppets in an advert which is regularly on. Pity they didn't just tell it like it is, e.g. 'our APR is 1000% and if you don't pay up we'll come round and break your legs'

Adverts that pretend to be an official announcement - This is the blah-blah mint announcing the release of a limited edition of blah-blah-blah coins. The cock it is, it's just another load of tasteless crap you're trying to dump on a guillible public.

the skoda ad where they liken the car to a phone because the moron zombie target market can only think in those terms, or perhaps it is to appear cool. Either way it's cringe.

So many, what about any car ad showing off the car's stereo which has iPhone compatibility - something you can pick up from your local Aldi for less than £50! (or you can get a unit with USB/Bluetooth and DAB for less than £150) If that's the only thing the car they're advertising has going for it, it must be bad!
And any gambling/, money lending ads - not that much different than cigarette advertising in their repugnance, IMOHO

Indeed, ad apparently the ASA have been inundated with complaints about it being offensive and inappropriate. Personally I think we should all complain.... that Sue didn't actually blow the irritating git up. Next advert should be both Sue AND VBH each firing off a Javelin accompanied with the line "You buy one, you get one free, I SAID...."

Is it just me or do I not particularly want 'German engineering' on my hair? Sounds like the sort of thing Dolph Lundgren used in the '80s. Plus, the bottle looks like it should contain wood glue or grouting paste.
