GORDON BROWN IS HOTT AND SEXAY!!!

speaking of fun, sleak, silver, cool gaming systems- gameboy advance sp... quite AWESOME.

[Dopey]

Is this some other gordon brown that I don't know about, as the one I'm thinking of is very large and fat. unless your into that sort of thing.

[Bored_mum]

I think the fact that this discusion is even taking place means job done by the marketing exec's of the Playstation.

[Adam]

The slogan "fun, anyone?" is nice and simple and it different from what Sony Playstation have opted for before. As Bored_mum has said that this thread is proof that the advert or slogan has worked and there job is yes, done.

[Ahh_Pathetic]

who has bought a playstation on the back of this thread then?

[Bored_mum]

No - but it has got me thinking about games I want, still money in their pockets!

[MK Chris]

Yes, like I said, out of sigh, out of mind - I think it's a good campaign, it's different and as Bored mum says it has people talking about it.

[Ahh_Pathetic]

Yes, i also talk about skodas. doesnt mean i want one.

[MK Chris]

Skodas are now not bad cars though - cheaper, repackaged VWs.

[Sidders]

I still wouldn't want to own one though.

[Dopey]

I still wouldn't want to own one though.

What kind of whacko would. they are just skips.

[Sidders]

They're not, they're actually pretty good these days. The Octavia is one of the safest cars on the road.

[Dopey]

Because you have to push it.

[Ahh_Pathetic]

to be honest we were actually discussing trebants but i didnt want to sound even more common....

[MK Chris]

I still wouldn't want to own one though.

What kind of whacko would. they are just skips.

You see, this is the kind of 'things never change' attitude that never does anyone any good. Yes, Skodas used to be crap (I should know, my parents used to own one of the old ones) but now there is hardly any difference between them and the VW equivalent, except for the different badge. Funnily enough, that started when VW bought them.

[Sidders]

I don't know why VW didn't change the name of Skoda.

[Bored_mum]

The VW Passet and the Skoda Octavia are basically the same car - just a heck of a price difference, people are snobs though and would rather pay through the nose to have the VW badge. Having said that I have to say I wouldn't buy a Skoda, but I wouldn't buy a VW either. And VW wouldn't want to change the name of Skoda because it is a name everyone knows - even if it has not had the rosiest of pasts.

[MK Chris]

My point exactly. I would buy a Golf GTi.

[Ahh_Pathetic]

cough common cough.

[MK Chris]

Oi - I'm pointing out that I would buy a VW - I would rather a nice 206, although I didn't mention that as it's not a VW.

[Bored_mum]

Anyway, what car these days is not common?? And I do mean mainstream under 30K cars. VW Golf's are common because they have reliable, durable engines, which I would say is not a bad thing.

[kendra k]

in america, only yuppies and posh brats drive VWs.

[Ahh_Pathetic]

mainstream under 30K? i wish i was in that stream...

Theres loads of cars that arent common but anything with GTi after it automatically shouts it.
