I've seen it. I don't like it because my Transporter engine smokes like a bastard and the advert reminds me of the fact.

It's a bit surreal, yellow submariney
but the tune's catchy, how long does it last, it seems to be on for ages. It's different to their spare parts one where the tyre rolls
uphill and the wipers walk but I liked that one as well
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I like their last few adverts, i guess their all about their new slogan, the power of dreams.
Better marketing than just showing off their latest models i think.

Seen it quite a bit on telly, its on the honda.co.uk home page too.
When cog was on tv you could get the dvd on the website free. There is loads of stuff on the making of the ad, which is really intresting. Also has
the original Sugar Hill Gang 'Rappers Delight@ video, which is the song off the ad.

Got my DVD copy of the ad from Honda this morning. Not watched it yet to see what is on there but it says about the making of it similar to the one
they sent out for cog.
Great service that from them - I sent an email on Sunday afternoon, acknowledged on Monday, DVD on the doormat on Wednesday.
I teach marketing (amongst other things) so always useful to have things like that to fill in during lessons.

Marketing....
Have you read the autobiography of murray walker? His 'real job' was a advertising exec. Untill the last 12 or so years of his
commentating career, he had the week job, and commentating at the w/e.
anyways. One of the jobs he was given was to create a bird seed advert. Trill had 90% of the market and wanted to increase sales. This was thought a
tad difficult.
So, his team set out thinking up ideas.
They came up with a slogan.
'A lonely budgie is a sad budgie'. By stimulating the market for budgies, they automatically sold more bird seed.

I have read the book and I have quoted that example to students a few times!
Watched the DVD Honda sent me tonight. It is quite interesting as a history of Hondas recent adverts - and it gives me a good chunk of a lesson next
week
