help a poor student out? vw adverts wanted!
« on: 10 April 2005, 13:41 »
Hey guys,

I'm in my third year as a pikey student at nottingham uni doing mechanical engineering but for some random reason I gota do a module called advertising and marketing. Anyway i'm choosing to analyse volkswagens advertising stratergy for an essay coz they consistently make awsome ads. I have downloaded what ones I can find but am having trouble finding a few I would like:

1. Old Mk1 ad where it falls from the sky and lands next to a japanese guy
2. The one with the yokel american folk with the 'ufo' where the closing line is 'kinda like a v-dubya'
3. Any contreversial vw ads past and present (i allready got the new polo terrorist one)
4. Any viral advertising ads (ones sent by email from mates etc)

If anyone by any chance has any ads on there pc videos or stills, posters or anything or know of any good links it would help me a lot.

Many thanks peeps and sorry for the random request!

Right i've got one more to find which is really anoying. I want a still/photo of the golf mkIV advert from a magazine or billboard etc. Its he one with the cars lined up with spoilers etc and beneath it is says the phrase:

'some things are best left alone' (or something like that!)

You all remeber the ad?

Once again if anyone can help it would be great!
