vr6matt 0 Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 I was just wondering if there was a TV ad for the VR6 when it first came out? If so does anyone know where to find this?I can remember an advert from when I was a litt'lun with some old country woman on a farm and shes describing what she saw "i saw these bright lights... and like two letters....v...w..." and then a mk3 golf roars past... not sure if it was the vr6 (my mind from my childhhod is very distorted as you might have gathered! %-6 ) Link to post Share on other sites

shail 0 Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Im sure i remember one with a tiny golf driving up a house of cards. The ad was showing the toruqe of the car. I THINK it was a golf VR6 but it was so long ago. The advert had the car racing some sort of insect while oriental men bet on the outcome. Link to post Share on other sites
