Default Marketing an FPV should be like this!
Great ad... imagine if Ford had a capable Advertising Agency like Skoda does.

LOL Look at the rant in the comments. I see one person calling it euro trash and writing "can you get a bigger piece of ****?". Thank goodness for the uncensored comments on YouTube, he couldn't say that here with the swear filter and all.

I didn't say I would buy one, I asked which dealer he'd test drove the car at?

Incidentally, POS or not, that car will match a Falcon 6 for acceleration and out-handle it.

Remember the short video where parts of the FG flew together, I think FPV could do something similar
maybe with parts of the S/C V8 coming together, diff wheels brakes all going together in to the car.
Then have Alan Moffat come in, start and drive it off with that beautiful V8 roar..

Another Ford Performance Vehicle.

So if you don't have an appreciation for some crap looking, gay fwd hatch, you are automatically labelled a 'bogan knob?' Right.....

Nothing to do with having or not having an appreciation for anything...

more to do with you your typical bogan knob dribble post, and you just confirmed what I thought with this post

Creates a memory. And it is different.

Ad success.

I didn't think the Vikings came from the Czech Republic though. I reckon Volvo could sue!
