    Jayzuz lads. Just stumbled across the driving seat on tv3. Fcuk me that's some shiote. They just interviewed some employees who drive skodas and it was embarrassing. I'd honestly think it did more harm to the brand than anything. It can't be a good thing for brand image to be on this pile of shiote. The state of the ageing blonde. Massey Brothers must be looking after the make up there. Nicht gut. Gonna watch part two for a laugh.

    Nearly a proper review too. Did they even open the boot in the B-max? Show the glove box or cup holders?

    Would you really want to see the glove box or cup holders as a feature in a car on a motor review show?

    Thanks Dar. I took out that line :)

    I read through that ad, Its a good job don't get me wrong. But I didn't understand this part in bold. After reading it a few time, so just a heads up! :)
    *Regularly waxed and paint/alloys fully sealed for winter

    I just don't understand that bit.

    Does it take long to apply the mascara or are they permanently tinted?

    Meant to show that the car is well looked after and maintained appropriately to protect the car body in weather conditions and avoid unnecessary wear and tear.

    Just shorthand really, a lot of ads restrict the words, so avoiding using "has/is/was/has been" etc gets around that?

    Nothing wrong with fanboyism, as long as it's not with diesel.

    When I'm going 600 miles a week at less than 30 mpg, even my mileage claims (which are rubbish) turn me into a diesel fan :)

    A BIG diesel though and it'd have to be pre 2008 so I'd still be fecked on tax.

    Actually, thinking about the tax and how often I do that mileage, and the expenses I get, I'll stick with my 2.0 petrol.

    Can seriously see the attraction though, I used to 500 miles a week plus with no expenses.

    You'd want to be buying one of these if you're going diesel at all.
