Default Humour - Active Park Assist Pinball

I think this video shows that Active Parak Assist is not just for really bad drivers, but this will make you laugh.

haha! love it! Excellent ad!

Its funny how parisien drivers dont have a care for their bumpers!
If anyone did that here you would be up for your insurance excess at least!

I have been there lots of times, and I always look twice when I see brand new porsches/7 series bmws/ astons.. whatever with bumper scrapes!

Good ad. I thought the park assist ad that we had in Australia was just a gimmick. Obviously not.

Geez, I thought people parking here were careless, that's awful!
Hope no one decides to emulate that ad with my newly resprayed bumpers!

Great ad! Why not run that ad here in Oz?

Funny and adds to the Euro-mystique of the car.

Also adding to the non care about bumpers of any car, they also dont care about whacking their doors into other peoples cars when parked next to each other. My wife is french, she was telling me that this is all just wear and tear!

How it works is, if you dont want this happening to your car, you do NOT park in cities public parks, but in expensive underground carparks. If you do park in the street, you basically give the right to others to dent it, as you do not care for it.
