After watching the Dalaro advert on the Volvo website, I am convinced that Ocean Finance have found their next set of actors.....

What the hell is the point in that ad? It doesn't give any sort of conclusion at all so still leaves the so called "mystery" wide open.

Also, what's to say that it isn't some sort of freaky hoax? 32 cars (all same model) in one day? As they said, they don't sell 32 in a year. If that's the case then the local main dealer would be a one man band with no staff to assist. If 32 people in one day were to order the same car then there'd be a queue round the block if he was serving them all on his own.

I'm not convinced.

I read somewhere that BMW et al were featuring clips showing their cars in 'extreme manoeuvres' that wouldn't be allowed on TV ads.
I guess this is Volvos wierd interpretation, but it wouldn't make me by an S40.
I think it's some sort of psychobabble to tell people not to be afraid of buying a Volvo as you are normal, not freaky like in old days.

I thought it was a piece of drama when I watched it...I didn't think Volvo were actually saying that there WAS a small place where they all bought the car on the same day. Perhaps the video guy got the wrong end of the stick, or the shoot was on April 1st?
