Old Lady - Volkswagen Golf Commercial 

Do you know this is dutch? This is always on tv.

@@shithead223 It's an old commercial, it's never on tv

THIS is what a perfect commercial looks like: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xvFZjo5PgG0.html

Yup, good example for a good ad. Not too long, funny and entertaining and still advertises well for the product. Most modern commercials are so dull and boring, car ads are usually cranking lifestyle shit to 300% and nobody cares to memorize them. But the old lady driving like a stunman, that's something to remember. Also because of perfect execution.

And we will look back at this this when they do and think crikey they really did form armies

But it's so old now. We also need to move on.

@@bryanguegan6937 The Beatles and Led Zeppelin are old. Shall we move on from those?

@@paulwfranklin1323 Yesss. I only listen to recent songs (2021), especially EDM/electropop.

Two words: "Mash gets Smash".

@@bryanguegan6937 i don't even listen to music 😅

ok

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😔❤

the golf is older than 10 years tho.

@@kevinpedersen5290 I know

@@kevinpedersen5290 jezz…

She sounded hella fun though lol

Bless her!

I feel as if there’s a lot more to this grandmother we’ve yet to uncover…

This lady had some tales to tell.

Its equivalent, not it’s, which means it is.

Misuse of the big term love is soon to be banned, and must be edited out -- love is an absolute feeling that only my protectors (the true alphas) can feel for me the absolute being only, myself being the lovable/loved/lovely being, and only I can use the word love instead of like!

Misuse of the big term lady is beyond wrong and soon to be banned, and must be edited out, as all womyn are the exact opposite of lady/mrs/ms/other big terms -- I am the only Lady / Mrs / Ms etc in existence aka the respectable being and the true Leader, and all those misusing my big terms and promoting impostors are to be banned soon in the new system aka totalitarianism!

This VW Golf had the best looking interior

d-head this it's way more older than 10 years

@@leart78 what would be stopping people to buy mk3s in 2012 lol

TDI with a 100% certainty of turbo failure and a choked off intake.

@@ShainAndrews the 2.0 TDI is unkillable, I am sporting it in my B7 passat which has 365.000km on the same engine, same turbo. Just don't treat it like your dad bought it.

The best engines where 1.8. or 1.9/2.0 petrol GT or GTI versions!

no its not

@@DenisDaLynx Thanks! I hadn't seen that one, it made me laugh.

@@jorisvb y'know, you're free to just _not comment._

If the sales of the car went up because of the commercial, then yes. But we don't know.

@@brinckau Don't be so miserable. Just enjoy it for what it was.

@@resnonverba137 I want to enjoy it for what it was. It was a commercial for a car, whose purpose was to convince people to buy this car. This is exactly what it was. And by the way, we know about the sales ("VW Golf sales" on Google). The commercial was released in 2011. Apparently, it didn't work. The sales went down, while at the same moment, the car industry was selling more cars than the previous year, globally. So, the people who created this commercial probably think that it's a bad commercial. Because it didn't work.

@@brinckau I hope one day you may realise that something can be good, enjoyable and clever without commercial success. The two are not mutually inclusive. Enjoy your evening.

@@resnonverba137 Yes, like spending quality time with your friends, or working for an NGO, or learning something new. It's good and enjoyable, with no commercial purpose, and therefore, no commercial success. But commercials are created to manipulate you. That is not enjoyable. Plenty of people who have worked in marketing have explained how it works (in my country, I can name Frédéric Beigbeder and Thierry Ardisson, who created some of the most famous and liked commercials in France). They have explained that their job really consists in brainwashing you while giving you the illusion that it's fun and harmless. Your reaction was expected. The commercial was crafted to generate this very reaction. I hope one day you realize that, and side with people who try to warn you, instead of siding with people who try to manipulate you.

let's be honest, she didn't get to that age because she was a fool 😁

@@potocatepetl 😂

😂

well my man if u hit gas pedal as much as u can u will drive as the grandpa

Me too, I am a grandma and drive my little Cabrio like that (but. It with my grandbabies) LOL

What are you talking about?

Same here man..

We also have great commercial today you've probably missed good ones.

What about the old times when there were no commercials?

2000s, not 2000's. 🙂

Thank Hitler for that and thank capitalism for the emission scandal 😂

You think so? I think it was very good for the time, but I don't consider it the best interior. I does look very retro and never seemed fitting to me in the Golf 3.5 (the model 3 convertible, which was partly facelifted to model 4, but kept most of model 3 interior)

Does someone who still owns one count as well. :D

I think it was CRX

wrong, its "you can trust every Golf"

It ran in the Netherlands

It wasn't a UK market advert, more's the pity

wow, this comment adds so much value to the original video!

Very true superb car.

I said the same thing about a MK3 I bought new in 1997 and drove for 20 years, until I test dove a new MK7 in 2017 and bought it...

My uncle had one exactly like in this ad, bought it new in 1992, red, 5 door GL model. Even had the same wheels. Just about everything electrical on it broke within the first 5 years. 🤣 They also had a Honda and that was near perfect.

There are plenty of them in my country Kosovo. Two of the most hated cars and yet most used: gold 2 and golf 3

@@stevemcgowen Oh that is a sad truth! Happened to me with my Toyota Sienna van, drove it happily for fifteen years, then last August, on a whim, test drove the new model... now it seems my old van rides like a horse-drawn wagon.

Graffiti is plural. One graffito, two graffiti.

20s, not 20's. 🙂

They thought people would buy this car because they saw a nice commercial. That was an insult to our intelligence.

"Those were the days" lol what a load of nonsense

@@brinckau But there was more to it than just putting a tart in a bikini on the bonnet; there was a story that you had to _think_ about before you figured out the funny part.

@@wotcherfaz Some insults are smart, but they are insults nonetheless.

Yeah, my grandpa has a corsa from '99, it drives nicely (although the steering wheel is tilted). When i talked to him once, it turned out he was convinced that engine braking is bad for your car, the lower you go in the rev range the less gas you use and he never used 5th gear, even outside of town.

Old people weren't born old you idiot.

It's because it wasn't handled good but works fine nonetheless. Good quality for everyone.

The stereotype is that old ladies drive the car gently; they don't high rev it or fly over speed bumps etc. Which is everything the old lady in this commercial wasn't doing. 😂 I'm also not too sure how standing around kills cars? Modern synthetic engine oil doesn't goop up like the old mineral oils and the only thing you really need to be worried about are tyre flat spots but those won't develop in 2 weeks either- months at least. Another small concern is the battery but a healthy battery should be enough for a few weeks without starting. I've kept cars in storage before and consulted multiple mechanics who generally say it's fine as long as the car is turned over every 2 weeks and moved a little if not on stands. If there's no one to run it there's a longer procedure list like draining certain oils etc. and the car can be stored for years.

@@oldmillrd8153 Are you immediately calling people who say something you don't agree with an idiot in real life as well? Or are you just doing it here because you're a coward and feel safe behind your computer screen?

It's a Mk III golf too, so made from 1992-1998, this is add is at least 23 years old now.

@@Kalvinjj yup the new one is golf 8

@@Kalvinjj this add is made in 2010 to show how sturdy an used golf is

They know that, that's why they are trying to make funny ads.

Today yeah but in the past it was good. Now all cars are maded soo cheap....

Mk2, 37 years old, 311.000km, bit of rust here and there but nothing bad, most parts still easily available. Can't wish for more. The ad is from a time where those values still were held high

@@dranoelr yepp

volkswagen are just solid cars. No cheap plastic, durable engines... . The new ones, after 2020 are great again, from 2014 onwards there were some shitty cars. i am driving an 2002 Passat 3bg with a 1.9tdi engine. it was the first car of my uncle, he bought it used, after that it was the first car of my aunt. she drove it until 2015, where it got sacked for 2 years. The funny part is, that up until 2015 there was only like 1000€ used to newer some parts, like waterpump (excluding other services like oil change). i got it gifted then in 2017, took 1000€ again, made service and renewed a hose that got eaten by mise and the car drives perfectly fine with still a lot of power for 131ps. I am so happy with it. To sum up: for a lifespan of 20 years, 18 years it was a daily driver, got 290 000km on it (mostly short distance, normally not good for a diesel) and only had to renew parts worth 2000€ in 20 years. if that is not a deal than i don't know what in life it is. Best car ever.

@@sebastianfruhwirth7231 i drive a grandma mobile, golf sportsvan 1.6 tdi with dsg from 2016 and love it. 180.000 km on it and the only Issue I have had was the little pusher on the fuel flap not working anymore
