You mean Wacky Packages?
Use to love these..

These were mostly for the staes, but there was a series produced for Ireland and the UK.

There was also Wacky Ads, but I think this was more in the States.

I got this car ad as an attachment before and its been bugging me recently cos i can't remember the bloody car type.

It starts off with an old couple in the car, the wife is in the passenger seat watching the husband drive, she reaches into the back seat and takes out a spare driving wheel and pretends to drive. Then you see another car come up alongside the old couple, the wife looks at yer man and he looks back at her. Then she gets this evil look on her face and swerves the wheel so it looks as tho they're going to ram yer man. He panicks and flips the car.

It's really funny but sooooooooo annoying cos i can't remember it. Help me. Put me out of my misery.

I have that video clip on my PC and I've just had a look at it for you.

The red car that the old couple are in looks like a really old Lada. The yellow car that the guy who pulls up beside them is in looks like a Citroen Saxo/Peugeot 106 (both the same car essentially, just different badges). Though, it doesn't have a Citroen or Peugeot badge on the front so it may be some rebadged or made-under-licence version found in some obscure, former Soviet-bloc country or something!

Though, it definitely looks like a Saxo/106.

And in case you're wondering about the tune playing in the clip, it's "Mrs. Robinson" by Simon & Garfunkel.
