Audi South Africa recently negotiated a contract with the Gauteng Police Flying Squad to supply them with 100 Audi S3 Sportbacks to help with the fight against crime.
Fokofpolisiekar is the name of a local popular band and translates to English as “Fuckoffpolicecar”. Am pretty sure these S3’s can go f**k fast.
The copy at the bottom of the ad reads “Introducing the 100 strong Audi S3 Sportback flying squad. From 0 – Crime Stop in 5.5 seconds”

Nice work from Y&R New York for Land Rover. I think what they are trying to say is that all Land Rover drivers are liars and cowards?

Wonderful proactive billboard campaign for post-it notes by Ogilvy Action, London. copy to the right reads “May you stick together forever, Congratulations”. The ads are being put up in several prime spots around London. Am surprised at how few brands/agencies have yet to take advantage of this huge occasion.
Brilliant case study clip from Olvarit Baby foods.To promote their new range of healthy meat and fish baby foods they organised a babies-only food tasting at the Michelin-starred De Pastorie restaurant in Belgium.

Melbourne based ad agency BMF have launched an innovative fundraising initiative to help provide aid for disaster stricken Japan.
The idea is simple, when in a Japanese restaurant, customers will be asked to donate $2 for the use of their chopsticks, creating a simple mechanism to raise more funds. Kits of posters and collecting tins have been made and sent out and used in over 100 restaurants across 5 states!
All proceeds go to the Australian Red Cross Japan and Pacific Disaster Appeal 2011
