Blinkin Honda commercial on the radio

[richardthestag]

Do any other PH’ers feel compelled to wrench their car stereo from the dashboard before pitching it through an unopened side window everytime that sodding Honda commercial comes on.

:rage: :rage: :shoot:

Pointless commercial presented by a lethargic (though probably very nice) American.

Totally s:censored:hit really

:furious:

I’d never buy a Honda as long as my arse pointed south purely for my utter hatred of this advert, which is a shame really as they managed to get Jenson on the podium last weekend.

Who are they aiming the sales pitch at?

Old people who like softly spoken Americans [Honda Advert]“I’m speaking slowly so I can sound even more patronising than an American selling a Japanese car to you little Brits”[/Honda Advert]

The answer to “would you ever buy a car of th..”

:shout:[big][b] NO! [/b][/big]

Definately no more caffeine-rich beverages for Stag-boy today.

I suggest tuning to Radio 3 and a nice cup of Ovaltine.

I never seem to be able to hear the radio in my Honda...

Either that's because the roof is down and the VTEC is engaged, or I need new batteries in my hearing aid.

The moral of the story is never to listen to commercial radio stations. The adverts are just one reason why....

Is that like a middle-class Jack-in-the-Box?

I think it's quite a nice advert really. Very calming and less annoying than the vauxhall vivaro (procede in the kettle wise direction) and the blooming crazy frog!

That honda bloke sounds really nice!

Not heard that one, but I'm going to strangle Esther Rancid if I ever bump into her....

Bloody compensation junky.....

You would never buy a honda because of their adverts? Hmmm... They produce some of the best engineered cars on the planet, and you'd disregard that, for the sake of an advert? Hmmm

I think it's more of a whistle than a hmmm on the advert. But great script - we'll look into using it and we'll call you.

the 'honda guy' is garrison keillor. you might wanna look him up, think you might find he's not quite the thicky you paint him to be.
