While we are on the subject, don't suppose anyone has a link to the 'hide and seek' Corsa ad?

I assumed it was a Hindustan Ambassador (Morris Oxford with Isuzu engine, IIRC), but thinking about it perhaps it isn't.

Actually the Bangra Knights track is a remix. The music on the ad is Husan - Bald 'n' Spikey.

How come this advert (which I incidentally think is very funny), hasn't been banned because of 'racist' implications?
I'm amazed it's still on release, but very pleased to see it is.

What the f*** is racist about it??? The guy aspires to a new car like most of us on here and realises his dream!
