Marvellous! Great find, thank you.

Now why the bloody hell can't Alfa Australia come up with such hilarious and awesome ads like this.

Lets be honest, has ANYONE EVER seen any ad in Australia that isn't utter crap.

And to make it worse, they always seem to be followed by the BMW ad "I love the way you move", you know, the one that just impels you to get up and boogie . . . . just makes you wanna cry into your beer . . . . don't it?

My favourite car advert is still the Renault one where the bloke licks the car. Probably classed as sexual assault these days.

[As the day goes]

dont larf.  I told my wife the same thing.  The car we buy today will be the last ICE car we get to drive.

great add sportiva
its actually more serious than most people admit
the car industry sales are down world wide due to the
coal burning electric revolution
even i was contemplating  classic maserati
but i cant help to feel it will be viewed in 20 years not as a classic
but a good representation of the oil era in the same light we like to watch steam engines but
really dont want one ( well i do) but as a whole a dino at $550k today is it at its peak?
do the new generation care about hard facts or just soft solutions

scary world where transport will just become transport and the world turns another step closer to beige

It's a terribly voguish subject at present. I can't figure why, and say that seriously; we are still promulgating massive waste with almost nil discourse or steps towards sustainable repositioning in other domains. Look at where we are in transitioning refrigerant gases (domestic and automotive); it's a mess!

...do the new generation care about hard facts or just soft solutions

I think all they care about is Insty and becoming social influencers!  We're going to end up with a world where every second person is an "influencer" sort of like the old Eastern Bloc where every second person was an informer!

And a footnote, had a chat with our banned member Haakon the other day. He is warming to their blighted Alfa as a true driver's car, but wouldn't mind an EV for commuting.

[bazzbazz]

Why is Haakon banned?

[Citroënbender]

I presume for the way he found fault with every aspect of the car and the dealer, and he posted copiously about it? 

He's been a mate for a long while; we could argue for days about stuff but have plenty of common ground poking at French cars with proverbial sticks. And his personality probably makes him a good clone of "Eric" in the Giulia advert.
