South African VW Commercials

« on: December 23, 2004, 12:00:07 AM »
If you've never looked VW of South Africa's web site, you need to.  Where VW of America has tried for years to break away from their roots, VW of South Africa has embraced it.  They've got a bunch of commercials you can download . . . many of them feature air-cooled VWs.  I put some of my favorites in our gallery, but there a bunch more at their site.

Just to give you a taste, check out the pictures I captured out of one commercial . . .

Has Kyle ever been to South Africa?

Yes, please try to avoid naming your albums something generic like "album01". Always rename them to something meaningful.

Sure wish we had a big enough field at Bug-A-Paluza to park cars like they do in the commercial! :shock:

:D  :D I just watched the commercial!!!!! Now that is how to make a commercial that appeals to VW Folks. No special little group or click, just all VW's.  Now if VWoA will get their heads out of their posterior and realize this. Oh well I can dream cant I???? ](*,)

That's just one . . . there are a bunch more just as cool on their web site.  Go to http://www.vw.co.za and click on "downloads" under "Fun and Games" then on advertising.  They are slow to download, but they are worth the wait.

I put several of my favorites in our photo gallery and those will play faster from there.  Look in the Gallery under VW Literature, then under Commercials and then Non-US Commercials.
