http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQ3VDNgnSYU&feature=related << take a close look at this commercial - see anything suspicious in the exterior of the clio? I'll give you a hint - the "hole" in the bonnet, the rear screen whiper, the exhaust... :shock: :shock: :shock: :?: :?: :?:

One of the best adverts in the universe. The one with the blue 16v going cross country is good too :)

dont see the problem here. the bonnet bulge is where it should be (slightly to the left when sitting inside - in france) in all shots. the exhaust and rear wiper are the same as in england, so those wont be changed. and the interior is switched for left hand drive - as it is supposed to be in france.
dont see ur problem?

The bonnet bulge is in teh same place in France and everywhere else, as it is in the UK. You think they made the engine the opposite way round as well? :wink:

They just took a british car and mirrored it in certain shots.

what is weird with that though is that the last shot the writing on the numberplate is normal, but the bulge is on the other side...

If I was buying a ph1 valver for resto (you never know!) it would simply have to be like that in the ad - I've got the big poster of that car and I look at it sometimes and consider shocking things :shock:
