    Well a Big Congratulations to all members of this forum getting this add taken off the air and reviewed by Holden.

    I must also congratulate GMH for their swift action on this and how seriously they took our intervention.

    To that end they not only re-shot a section of the add in question but they engaged Simon from 4WDTV to shoot some owners DVDs and i think they will go in an Owners pack when ever a new purchase is made

    Check this out.



    Still misses a little on the description of why the Winch Blankets and also clear instructions to NOT use rapid aggressive pulling like a Snatch. Maybe a reference to the Difference betwen a Snatch recovery and a Chain recovery should have been noted as a voice over during the moments of no script.

    Very Very good start though.

    Well Done Holden

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
    WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.
