Was going through an old tape and came across this gem, and here it is for your viewing pleasure.
Its the 'Have you Driven a Ford Lately' remix i guess, for the EA and other Fords of that era. Have you Driven a Ford lately ?

To be honest I think that is a really good ad... would have been very effective back then too. Makes you wonder what went wrong with their marketing department, as most of their efforts since then have been crud.

Off topic XR8FELLA, but i'm waiting for the download, but you profile and Avitar are awesome. "I'm rick james " and derka derkastan. Makes me want to watch chappelles show and team america all at once, while I drink a cool and refreshing Samuel Jackson beer.
Classic

just watched it. I think I can actually remember when it was on. Brilliant ad that covered their whole range at the time. Ford marketing; what happened?
You'd be popular too manages to break the laws of physics by sucking and blowing at the same time. Maybe we should send a copy of that ad to Ford marketing.

Yeah it would be great if you could host them all. I love that ad. There's a nice looking platinum silver Ghia on it as well! Looks just like my car, right down to the 4WD-spec ride height! I've also got the owners manual cassette and loved putting it on because it was absolutely hilarious. "If you wish to eject this cassette, press the eject button, to the right of the cassette slot" and the way they they finished off the tape with the song off the ads was an absolute classic. Pity I can't play that tape in the car anymore, because now I have a CD-MP3 player.

What about this one from the 70's I think. Words went something like this...
Its a different world today, everything is constantly changing , rearranging. What we needed yesterday isn't what we need for tomorrow no no. Your on the move Australia, moving with the future. Ford Australia we're moving with you.....forget the rest. Showing my age  :
