Any of the "Have you driven a Ford lately?" campaign. I was young when they were on but was very catchy and memorable... Great ad campaign.

Company EB2 GLI Falcon had a cassette tape with a full version of the "Have you driven a ford Lately", and an audio version of the the Owner's Manual if I recall rightly. Though it was pretty cool, being a 4 year old at the time .

This is a showroom/motorshow poster for the EF series I came across. The actual poster is huge and very detailed, I've always liked it.

there was one that came out in late 03 celebrating Ambrose winning the V8supercar championship.

I remember it being in the paper and on billboards, I've got a poster of it somewhere. But it was basically Ambrose's pirtek v8 one side, and a lime green xr8 road car on the other, with the title:

Falcon. The Boss of V8 Supercars.

I have the Futura one and it's the same pic but with the wagon in front of the boat hah. All the old E-series brochures and adverts are full of shocking photoshop jobs. Like this one.. typical 90s Aussie family with their family sedan, before families moved to SUVs and abandoned local cars. But where are their legs???

I can't find that full page ad that had a picture of Russell Ingall's car with a lion tail sticking out from under the bonnet. That really was an "in your face" to Holden fans after Ingall won the 2005 championship.
