Nissan has a good one here, currently. You see a guy in a Patrol doing some
serious off-roading (science fiction this, obviously!), going about it
rather roughly. He's listening to the radio when there's a commercial about
a three-year all-risk warranty on the Nissan... (see a grin appear on the
guy's face as he drives into the lake, water entering the instrument
binnacle, the radio finishing the message:) ...Micra, Almera and Primera.

Cut to shot above water, some air bubbles rising and the tip of an electric
antenna rising above the surface.

The new TT commercials are pretty good, too. Very understated in black and
white. No other current Audi commercials, but I've been given a tape with
old Dutch and English Audi commercials of the '80s, some of which are
pretty good.
