Ram, good find there and see the statements on each ads.

Loved the statement in the Tata Safari Advertisement.

last one, the indica adv. is very badly photoshoped. look at the tyres and rear curve.

This is for the ford escort and trust me, this ad campaign is a lesson in how NOT hype the looks of a car for a launch of a new car. I was looking forward to "Latest" and what we got was dated. Honestly the only good loking car in those times were the astra and the lancer. Instead of the Escort I would rather go for a 118NE.

But to answer the question this is the Ford Escort.

A great thread! Brings back so many memories for me growing up in the 90s.

kudos to tata's advertising partners. They came out some of the best ads ever. I hope someone of us finds all the ads of tata ever made. only off late they'e gone awefully bad. the vista ad made no sense.
maybe we need a thread just for tata ads.

I was blown away with the esteem advertisement and i also believe that the esteem was the one vehicle which got sedan class into new era in India. flowed by the ford Escort

You want them? Here it is...
I really enjoyed a lot watching the FIAT palio ads from Brazil. Very nice ads. Why don't FIAT make such ads for india

mahadev_kc · 18th July 2009, 01:01

Does any one have the video clip of FIAT Palio NV, where in a couple just drool at the car at a signal and causing the traffic jam? I believe the colour they chose was Canary Yellow. Very catching color it is and also I've one
