I reckon the best was Alan Moffat driving an XC through people showing that a Falcon was better than an HX Holden with RTS going through witches hats
RTS suspension I think was just a sway bar added to the front of Holdens |

Call me crazy, but my favourite was probably during 2005-6 when the 6-speeder was released for the BF Falcon. It was in German with subtitles. I couldn't find a link on the YouTubes but if someone could, please post it.

it's almost as if the competition have gone for that theme and run with it to top sales while Ford are still wondering what happened, despite having a better product, years later. |

Wow, I'vd clicked on every link and was saddened that MY favourite commercial wasn't included.
I give you... the AU Falcon http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhYa_iypLBY Jazzy soundtrack, statements about the car and even makes the base AU1 Forte look kinda cool - honestly who designed those hubcaps!?! |

I haven't looked at any of the clips, but I did like the evil twin Festiva? advert that decapitates the inquisitive cat peering through the sun roof.

It was a British Ad for the SportsKA. That would be this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dzi_8Rscfs And then there's this little beauty with a pigeon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGbjVqLoz3I

Cannot find ad ANYWHERE... Have tried many sites but still no luck. Somebody help me pleeeeeeeeeease..............
The ad is for the latest F250's that Ford Australia released in 2001 and featured the Supercab pull a road train out of a bog hole on an outback road. At the end of the ad the driver of the effy asks the truck driver if he wants a chamois. ****er of an ad! Would love a copy... |

I don't know if this was posted, but the old Telstar ad where the husband and wife take a Telstar out for a test drive (and don't return it)
The bit I remember was: Husband: "Power steering! Look at this!" Nagging wife: "Now John!" Something like that. I was a kid at the time. Last edited by ryanstev; 24-05-2009 at 03:04 PM. |

not a ford commercial but it's pretty cool and at the 24 second mark it makes the same noise as it does in the BA GT Ad (the one with the XY GT at Mount Panorama) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ww5gK...eature=related
cheers, Anthony

Love the "Field of Dreams" theme "Build it and they will come" (back from the dead) to use it where ther farmer builds a track and Steve McQueen turns up to drive the 2005 Mustang in his field. Very clever Elanor
