Yes, but you'll always remember the Citroen C4 now.
And that is what advertising is all about.

True.

Fortunately for marketing and commercialism 99% of people aren't like me and don't buy things picked for spec. If I was looking for a car (and I'm not), I'd pick one that I needed and could do what I was looking for. i.e. not costing a fortune to run or looking like a Soviet era castoff.

I saw this at my mum's house, it creeps me out.

Punk sis has an older Citroen, it's a decent enough car.

And finally. My friend I'll be staying with in Kansas (if all goes according to plan) said she wants to get an SUV. How to say, in more polite terms, "there's no f**king way I'm getting in that!"? :-D

Personally I can't stand Cirtoen's, but the ad, IMO, is quite well done.

Say to her that everyone has already a SUV, that she can better get a pink Fiat x1/9 1300 cabriolet :lol:

Nice advert, but a dancing transformer Citroen doesn't make me want to buy one.  There's no hidden message other than "buy one of these kids, it's funky" which is as patronising an advertising message as I could possibly encounter.

The Honda Accord commercial at least had a message about the car's engineering, VW adverts always used to be witty (remember the one with an old Golf GTi being beaten from the lights by an Astra GTE?  The advert openly admitted that the Golf wasn't the fastest 0-60 in it's class, but beat the competition in every other way).

Mention the fact they they're bought by people who are either extremely vertically challenged, have incredibly tiny penises, buy well padded wonderbras (occasionally all three) and have a chip on their shoulder as a result, so they're going to intimidate the hell out of everyone else on the road to make them feel better.

Yea, maybe, but you just can't beat the great commanding view of the road they give you :-)

She has an old Volvo right now. I like Volvos. But apparently it's falling apart, so... :-)
