Best advertisements and press releases

Post by richardw »

My daughter gave me this framed picture at Christmas:

(Sorry the quality isn’t good - it is glazed and it was difficult to get a clear reflection free image)

I think the ad has a great strapline that really communicates the Elite concept well, and maybe others would like to share favourite adverts, releases etc from the Elite, Eclat and Excel years?

Happy 2021 everybody

Ive had this poster for a very long time, but its what they used in the showrooms. its out of its frame at the moment as I moved house and it needs a new frame.

"The Lotus Excel must qualify as a very desirable mistress" is the poster I've got in my office.
