Angry Nulon oil - proudly Australian, but...

They show a ****en Nissan GTR in their damn TV ads?!

Anyone seen these ads?!

I was rope-able!

And it doesnt make sense anyway. Appeals to patriotism go hand-in-hand with owners of Aussie cars which MASSIVELY outnumber the number of Nissan GTRs on the streets.

I emailed these clowns and, fairly politely, gave them a piece of my mind.

W. T. F!!!

Patriotism, what is that? waving Australian flags that are made in China.

You will get over it.

yeah it doesnt make sense.

proudly australian but showing a japanese car.

It's like having a ww2 veteran that fought in the pacific talk about the good 'ol days and the pride the blokes had for their country then walking out of the rsl on anzac day and getting into a japanese car and spitting on the flag.

that makes my blood boil to.

Totally uncalled for. I mean really do you think before you type?

Who cars what kind of car they use on their ad? Their pitching their oil as high performance, what better car to use than a GTR?

Everyone should be happy that Nulon is still running. Hopefully everyone here is patriotic and supports them
