Posted by Sander Janssen on February 26, 2010 2 comments

Volkswagen keeps introducing innovations in their cars. One of their new assistance systems is called ‘Lane assist’. It alerts a driver when he is deviating from the road, a problem usualy caused by tiredness. The clown in this ad is just perfect, it looks like it’s been done by Stephen King himself.

Mercedes-Benz: Gullwing

Posted by Sander Janssen on February 16, 2010 1 comment

At the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show Mercedes-Benz released the new SLS AMG model. It’s their new supercar with 571 horsepower and a top speed of 300 km/h (180mph). But the real special thing about this car are the Gullwing doors. These doors make the car a real icon. To communicate this special release they created a unique billboard. Just a simple poster placed under a glass cover, but the glass doors are left open in the same style as the Gullwing doors.
