New Skoda Advert
 

Anybody seen the advert for the new skoda fabia on TV. Its got cake makers actually making the car in the form of cake. very clever how its done , but my wife said "what a waste of food, i hope it got eaten afterwards"

Re: New Skoda Advert
 

yeah seen it once, thought it was very clever too...but have to agree with your wife and thought it was a waste lol :D

Re: New Skoda Advert

i think skoda shud come out and say what happened to the food

Re: New Skoda Advert
 

Best ad on tv at the moment..

Re: New Skoda Advert

Re: New Skoda Advert

What is the difference between a Skoda car and a Jehovas Witness?. You can shut the door on a Jehovas Witness.:D

Re: New Skoda Advert
 

Having friends and family that are Jehovas Witnesses I find that an offensive post.
It just shows you to be religiously intolerant towards others beliefs.
It also shows you have no idea about current car build quality as Skoda now make excellent cars.

Mr it was a light hearted post, if you have no sense of humour that is your problem not mine, in my opinion.:mad:

Re: New Skoda Advert
 

Its great. There was some facts about it in the paper:

Oh and the real car cost £7,900. The cake one: £500,000!!! and the staff who made it got to eat it. Then it went to production crew etc...

Re: New Skoda Advert
 

It is a good ad....

Re: New Skoda Advert
 

So that is what this thread was about, it just goes to show how little some of us watch television. Good advert that is, my next door neighbour has a prety modern dented Skoda, I think he would be better off eating it than driving about, either that or a new set of glasses. Sorry Frances but you are a little accident prone.:D

Very cleaver marketing.

It would appear though most was not edible and was composted.

Then Again I wouldnt fancy eating a cake thats been in a shop window in the sun for a week.

Re: New Skoda Advert
 

A good job it wasnt edible think of the calories in it. At least it was zero CO2 emmisions and was recycled. :D

Re: New Skoda Advert
 

I think its a brilliant ad really well thought up.. thought they would have donated it to worthy cause....

Re: New Skoda Advert
 

And the remaining question - what happened to the cake? Barker says they looked at donating it to charity, but by the time the cake had been in the studio and under the lights during construction it was not thought fit for human consumption. It ended up in a compost heap - though the chocolate speedometer and marzipan wing mirrors were, reportedly, kept for posterity.


This is an enormous amount of trouble to go to for an advert - some estimates say that it cost £500,000 to make; one newspaper pointed out the comparative value of a Skoda (the advert costs 62 times as much).
