    Damn, i thought i had that ad, looking through my folder i dont. I do have a Maloo ad which never hit the air waves LOL

    Actually, i seem to be missing a fair few of my Holden clips! I've only got 2 ads that hit the TV left, both for the LS2 Clubsport. One for the 15 second ad and the other's the 30 second ad! Sorry couldn't help you

    Good luck finding it, have been looking for years since I bought mine. Holden have done their damndest to strip all of the newish videos of theirs off the net by the looks of it.

    The maloo ad's nothing really special, was a work in progress, just needed Holden details. But that was scratched and i think it was used in shows instead. 30 seconds where there's footage of the maloo on the track (looking like a country road), then a sweep across of the front of the maloo, a spin around of the outside of it via the drivers side from the front to the back, then back on the track, then interior, then about 2 second of the LS2 badge lol

    according to our lovely dept of road transport "started"

    cause till i saw it i never thought of doin a burn out





    cant find the govt site i read the info but found this........

    Australian TV is certainly not as conservative as American TV, however our commercials are for some strange reason. It's illegal to show a car doing over 100km/h in a commercial here, even if it's a sports car driving around a race track, because of course it encourages speeding on public roads... A Holden commercial was banned a little while ago because it showed a Commodore Ute doing donuts in the desert to make Tornados (which was the name of the special edition car) because it 'encourages burnouts on public streets'. Totally acceptable and safe car commercials are banned all the time here, it's insane.
