edd_t Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Did anyone see the Honda advert on last night during 'Come Dine With Me' (the GF likes it) on channel 4? It was live and lasted a couple of minutes. A load of people jumped out a plan and spelt Honda on the way down. Was pretty impressive. Cant get on youtube at work to show the vid, but hers a rightup in the guardian http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2008/may/29/advertising.channel4?gusrc=rss&feed=networkfront Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlotte Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 It was impressive and all that but soooo random! They could have at least told you what it was before it was on. And the cost of that?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I think that's brilliant!! I love Honda. //edit: I'm also going to test drive the new Accord hopefully soon. Looks nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edd_t Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 i dont think it was advertising a particular car. just the brand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 It's to mark the release of the new Accord though, which I believe comes out today? //edit: No it was yesterday, I had an invite to go and look around but didn't bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dangerousandy Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Honda adverts are so cool - shame the cars are boring (except NSX) and driven by pensioners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
