    Strange new S40 advertising

    02-12-2004 11:10 AM #1
    Check this out: http://www.volvocars.co.uk - The Mystery of Dalaro

    Its some spooky, Blair Witch documentary film investigating why 32 people bought the new S40 on the same day.

    Do you think this really happened? Im still trying to make up my mind up.

    I know its an ad, but it looks so damn real.

    From what I understand, it was just a marketing deal.

    Apparently, someone on vvspy.com checked the regos of the cars and they were all registered to Volvo Car Corporation

    Didn't anyone get the Carlos Soto pop-up window that popped up after you close the volvocars.se Flash Video page?

    Yeah, now there's a faux expose on the expose. It's also owned by Volvo.

    What?! Carlos Soto is fake too?! Why why why? Volvo's faking a film maker that shot the fake documentary?
