Apparently, the moose was the only animal with a bottom lip as big as McRae's

Anyone remember Louise Aitken Walker, she was a moose behind the wheel?


PS - this is an off the cuff remark not intended to insult or offend anyone, its just as well I didn't mention Americans

hmm, I thought it was an Elk, and Ford was taking the mike out of a certain company that failed the elk test.

Just saw the 'new' Focus ad and it would seem that the acting talents of a Moose are preferred to Mr McRae

Good job it couldn't get behind the wheel

Elk have Antlers similar to Reindeer and Moose have the 'wide flat' antler.

Could it be possible that they couldn't keep Colin on the road long enough to film the add?

Or maybe Marcus was right, and they were trying to get a soccer link by using Nicholas An Elk Uh? Sorry.
