Maestro in new Subway ad

[mnde]

A Metallic blue one. Anyone seen it? Ad revolves around an old couple spotting a bony thin man emerging from the sea during a gale, stumbling, freezing to death, with a pedalo near by. They leave their car and go and investigate with concerned expressions on their faces. It contains the classic lines:"Am I dead?""No, you're in Frinton-on-Sea"(He is supposed to have been swept off course from the waters of Corfu....)Mark.

Disc in the window says 31/01/10...

[pandamonium]

As Fredtransit will probably point out, most cars in adverts have a 'TV reg' put on them. The registration is probably not from that exact car.

[CortinaDave]

Looks like the right reg on that car though, DVLA have it as..1988 AUSTIN MAESTRO L BLUE/GREY

"Am I dead?""No, you're in Frinton-on-Sea"(He is supposed to have been swept off course from the waters of Corfu....).

Having experienced Frinton, I'd sooner of died.

Having experienced Subway* I'd sooner have died.Maybe "experienced" is too strong a word, I've been in long enough to look at the price list

AGREED! There are 2 Subways here in Carrickfergus, and you know when you're getting near by the full frontal assault on the olfactories - it STINKS, and not in a good way like used Mobil 1.I complained about the litter from my nearest Stinkway, providing both location photos and actual receipts, and the issue has been addressed - no more litter. Respect for that, but the food honks.Give me 12 Charger and a mucky kebab eaten in the front passenger seat of an Avenger. Followed by 10 Number 6. Now THAT'S a night out.

I like Subway sarnies.It's probably because our works canteen mafts something vile.If the choice of food is between Macca D's and a Subway, it'd be the latter for me EVERY time.

[Mr Lobster]

I don't actually mind Subway sandwiches. What I do dislike is the smell they pump out into the surrounding area to entice you in to buy their expensive and long sandwiches.

[Guest]

I saw the prices in the window of a Subway once, some of the sarnies were nearly £4! What do they put in em, rubies?

[Mr H Sceptre]

Subway's are horrible

OOOOFFFF!!!!

saw that advert the other day and laughed.

 

exactly like mine by the look of it.

 

shite-tastic!.

I love this ad too. I've noticed quite a lot of old cars in ads recently, and at 1st thought it must be that ad agency folk realise old cars are cool, but then the penny dropped. Using old cars probably means they don't have to pay product placement fees to the manufacturers.

[pogweasel]

In the valley of the trash junk food, the foot-long cheese-steak sub is king.

 

OK, so a Subway isn't haute cuisine, but when it is a choice between that and other generic crap (McD / BK / KFC etc) it is going to win every time.

 

I thought that advert was a bit shit though, even with the Maestro.

On a similar theme, there was a nice brown Mk1 Metro in the trailer park scene in Gavin and Stacey Episode 2 (which I caught up with last night on the Sky box). Mark.

On the news on Tuesday or Monday, the civil servant walking to the Iraq inquiry passed an E reg Scirocco GTI!
