Video of the week: Just to capture the soul of the 205 GTi...

Having written the piece on the 205 GTi, I remembered this clip. Got digging on the 'tube and found it, and the temptation to post it on petrolblogger was overwhelming... So here it is!

This is an advert from the 80's for the 205 GTi. Probably one of the more epic car-ads of history... 

Just comes to show in which mindset the car was created. I think Peugeot simply asked a child "What do you want to see in a car-ad?". And here's the result: jet-fighters, ground-effect vehicles, aerial bombs... and the 205 GTi. It's just purebred french lunacy!

The awesome-factor of this ad is damn near maximum!
