apparrently banned for sexualising women!?

Daft really, maybe a slightly bit raunchy for daytime TV though..

i've no issue with that, but post watershed, i cant see the issue.

to be honest, i've seen far worse pre-watershed

What a great advert! ! Can see the need to be after the watershed but as mentioned seen a lot worse

True, I wouldn't of put it past them banning it on the premise potentially of Renault being sued for lack of a VaVavoom button. Classing it as miss-representation and false advertisement...

As a rule, adverts don't get "banned". If they've any connection at all to the company, then it's just a phrase that the ad agencies use to pump up views on the internet for something that their client would never dream of running as a mass-media campaign.

(Some of the "banned" ads aren't even connected to their brands - the infamous one of the VW Polo suicide bomber was a blind pitch to VW from an independent creative with no link to the company)

I see nowt wrong with that, i suspect that the people complaining were not very attractive, you do not see men complaining about the sexy guy in speedos advert.

Liked it, particularly because it featured Nicole & Papa.

Superb! Wonder if he bought it after all that?

 

[JTD_Liam]

I wonder if this version caused a similar 'ban'....

Personally can't see an issue with either adverts so long as they're done after 9pm (just to be a bit sensitive to children potentially watching).

After 9pm they can fill their boots, or tyres in this instance. The UK and all it's politically correct bulls*it has gone too far...'ohhhh people might be offended'. Let them be offended then, sh*t happens, they'll soon get a grip if they confront it once or twice!

if any bloke bought a new clio im sure he would prefer the ad with the washboard stomach guys

 

[giblets46]

Is that button available as a retrofit?
