^^ Yup. Lots of Brock owners rape and pillage ESP's and recover with Cerulean Blue and Herringbone for VK Brocks.

Dunno if this has been posted or not, but I appreciated it.

There is a bit of language in the second commercial though, discretion is advised.

I only looked at the second last ad, and yes I can remember the Amoco ads with the "final filter". I used to have my first car serviced at an Amoco Service Station in the late seventies.

I remember a lot of those...My favourite car commercial was the "Go Charger" one.

But I mainly remember just normal old ads. The old Tab Commercials, Lipton Tea, Life be in in etc.

My favourites were the Health Messages. I don't know if they were shown Australia wide but they were on all the time in WA.
