New VW Poolo ad...

[chaparral]

What do you think?

What on God`s earth posessed them to make that? Not funny and in very poor taste.

Surely not!, I'm sorry but there is no way i can believe that is a genuine Volkswagen advert.
Clever yes for a nanno second and with very convincing camera work but any car manufacturer who made an ad like that would be sticking a double barrel shotgun in their mouth.
Can't be bothered to look up the website bor whatsit.

viral e-marketing again..... could be genuine, but chances are not (VW is a very conservative company). But even if true, dont forget that Ford did the Sport Ka adverts with a Pigeon being spanked across the road and a cat getting its head chopped off.....

Mind you Ford took a lot of abuse for doing those adverts.....

And yes, actually not that funny. Suicide bombers are not funny....

I was sent this video earlier in the week. I contacted VW about it and when they saw what it was they went hopping mad!

It's a hoax and they were commencing legal action when I spoke to them.

I've removed the link.
