Just found this:

There's a caption missing from the final frames..... "No Montegos were harmed in the making of this advertisement!"

WTH? That's the BT public access wifi homepage!

Funny looking advert..

John, BT have just got a short article but the highlight is this

you will have seen it 100 times but it's still good.

Opens fine for me without any of what John is viewing - have you kicked your PC recently John ?

He should be using the vacuum cleaner on his pcs fans and cpu heat sink to clean the dust/dirt
clogging up the cooling system and not for sucking up the drool off the old car adverts!

the voice of experience?

A very clever and entertaining advert from back in the day...... how to make a low spec rep mobile seem appealing.... I like the way they emphasise the fact that it comes with a radio cassette.... these days we take it for granted that a car comes with a decent stereo, back then, it was very hit and miss wasn't it.... Jap cars nearly always came with them but loads of cars still didn't.... I remember going to look at a BMW 320 back in 1984 and was surprised to find that it had a worse spec than my MK4 Cortina... everything was on a menu and the original buyer of this car had just bought the basic car with no options.

Anyone remember this ad?

Good fun cars whose engines seems to last only slightly longer than the advert .... 50,000 miles and they were knackered.
