after browsering ebay and see the chevette from vuxhall and the engine space it reminded me of the car used in the 3rd advert as i wondered what it was, back then in 99' 00' i wsn't that bothered but now remembering these and that tin of sardeens in there i now know its a very rare vuxhall victor FB esate! but now i've seen it and i'm very happy but yeah i can see the space inside those older vuxhalls!
Can't see what was so wrong with some of these adverts, even the VX220 isn't abysmal as adverts go. Sounds to me like Vauxhall wanted someone to blame.
Believe it or not, the string music over the logo matches the introduction to "Papa Don't Preach" by Madonna. I couldn't tell you whether it started life anywhere else
I love when he says they're in America testing the Corsa. With the skyline of Toronto minus the CN Tower as a backdrop.
And the car being unloaded by a bulk-carrier Lake freighter
I love old car adverts and this is my favouite so far. well done
The first one was hilarious at the time. I loved his expression at the end.
Sent by Smith and Sniff to refresh my aging memory.
OTSOT
That one advert I remember watching back in 2000 where you can buy a Vauxhall off the Internet.
"MUM! DAD JUST BOUGHT A CAR!" Hehe! 😆😆😆
That internet one is quite random!
I knew it was him!

9 year old me struggled to sit in the seats in the boot how the hell was he moving around freely 😂
If you move the middle bench and front seat slightly forward, you can comfortably sit a 6-footer behind a 6-footer, behind a 6-footer!
Was there not also one in which Griff Rhys Jones was trying to work out all the different seat combinations on the Zafira?
Yes
The Zafira was the best car ever built in my opinion.
Yeah they are quite wonderful.
Yep my parents bought one 20 years ago which is still going strong

That 3rd row of the Zafira isn't good for adults, it's only suitable for young children
Paul Kaye ain't it? 😂

@@YKW2 Thank you very much i have been searching for that music for a long time.
YKW2 omg, I knew it sounded familiar!
@@YKW2 Didn't they use the intro from Layla prior to this ad? I guess they continued from there.
I didn't know Jeremy Corbyn did Vauxhall adverts
Good adverts but not very good cars
Hmmm cant be too bad one of the oldest cars in numbers still on the road, see plenty of Astras Vectras and Zafs
Hey! I own an Astra and it is a very good car! >:O
Zafira
My parents had a Zaria
