CPO Ad...Fixed

My apology for the f up...dunno where the pic went. Pic is back. ;>)

Dunno if this is a re-post, but a friend sent it to me this morning.
Pretty catchy if it ever showed up in the US, as I think it was a German/English language ad.
Way too young for me, but I get the point...

Was it actually used? Afaik, agencies create such ads for internal consumption, to brag about "this is what we could do", and to share with other agencies. Sort of an industry thing. They aren't intended to the public.

I wonder too but I wouldn't be surprised if it was used in Europe. The URL shown in the ad is for BMW Greece so I could see it as a real ad. It would result in howls of protest here in the States.

No idea if it really was used...a friend sent it to me, and he is no car nut, and could care less about BMW, but knew we have one. When I got the pic up the 2nd time, it gave me pause, as the model looks a tad young...I know I am getting older when I catch myself ogling the best looking 65 yr old in a social crowd. ...

Back at the ranch, that un-CPO nomenclature of 'BMW Premium Selection' is even more of a stretch than 'certified pre-owned' that is so casually tossed around here in the States.

I definitely remember seeing that one circulated a few years back, but I don't think it was for the domestic market. I want to even think the one I saw was scripted in a foreign language with the English translation added. Either way it's a great ad!

Kia had a couple of ads that pushed the boundaries in a similar way. Not intended for North American audiences. There are two ads on this link. You need to read the caption below each ad.
