This one's good, but there is no way this type of ad could be played in OZ (apart from the fact we don't have Mustang!!)

I think in this case, the do-gooders will complain that the advert encourages people to throw things out the window and potentially hitting people.

On the subject of ads, has anyone seen the BP ad in the latest issue of WHEELS where a XR5 Turbo is being chased by bulls and is on two wheels! It's on the same page as "Letters to the Editor".

Fast Eddie, yeh I've seen that ad gives 8.3% extra power or something like that.

The BP Ultimate ad that says something like "lasts you 40kms more..." has got a black XR5T on the side of the road... seemingly running out of fuel.
