    Is there a worse ad in the history of advertising, ever? Pretentious drivel with some clown in a gimp suit swimming in a frozen river, with **** background music.
    Awful, awful ****e.

    Have to agree, looks like it was done by a perfume advertiser whilst drunk.

    I have bought a Tarraco, but when I saw this add I would tend to agree with some of your sentiments....I quite like the background music though. It seems this new type of advertising, especially for cars, is based around advertising a lifestyle and then you get a glimpse of the vehicle at the very end....strange, but there must be some science behind it.

    I think the Kia Sportage is worse, absolute cringe with lip-syncing as slow as the car itself...

    Cars seem to be aimed as a lifestyle choice now rather than serving a transport.

    Absolutely, everything is lifestyle today, especially to 'morketing' types.
