Random brilliant old car ad of the day
Old car adverts featuring French speakers aren't really our forte. There's Nicole huskily whispering "Papa", Thierry Henry inventing new nonsense words to sell Renault Clios... That's about it.
So we're delighted to welcome a new entry into our canon: this little beauty from the days before CO2 emissions formed the bedrock of all motor car marketing. Where else can you see a tin-can bodied Peugeot GTi being dropped from a genuine Hercules transporter before being pelted by explosive parachute rockets on an icy lake?
Any more Gallic moments of pre-CGI brilliance out there, TopGear.commissars?
