I find the first time the bloody annoying adverts come on, it is the perfect time to stop watching, switch off and go and do something else.

Shame I only watched 1 lap this time though

I reckon that the car is an old jordan repainted, any advances on that? Plus which marketing guru decided that call centres sound like chickens?!?! bloody annoying.

what amkes me smile is teh fact that they are heavily stressing the point that they dont have call centres, yet the whole basis of the advert is a call centre scenario?!

marketing? just how stupid are they?!

The whole thing just looks so cheap and unprofessional (despite the obvious cost of using a race car for an ad, F1 or not), in fact it's embarrassing

They're not too bad, the thing that really annoys me is the really loooooong animated intro into the program after the Swiftcover bit. It's not making ITV any money and it's depriving us of being able to watch the, er, procession. Actually, that's the problem.

My first impression was that it was an A1GP / GP Masters car.

Sadly they couldn't do anything for you - they were too busy answering the phone

Yes it is an old Jordan, covered in vinyl. Powered by a motorbike engine..!
