Has anyone seen the new Audi A6 advert yet.

Apparently it drives up a ski jump slope in 9 seconds.:Yikes:

It did, however, have its automatic transmission locked in first to prevent the usual power loss during gear changes - oh yes, and it was on rally tyres with six-millimetre spikes. :D

It was then time for Bleck to start his breathtaking ascent into the sky. In first gear, at 4,200 revs per minute and at about 60 kilometres per hour, the A6 stormed up the jump, taking the 80 percent gradient with incredible ease. Later Bleck said: †œI could have gone faster, even at the steepest point.ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šà ¬Ã‚Â Nine seconds later, Bleck arrived at the starting gate, 47 metres off the ground. Bleck drove the A6 all the way up the ski jump a total of eleven times. link (http://www.germancarfans.com/news.cfm/newsid/2050307.005)

TV advertisements for cars are always unreal. Never do we see cars performing in heavy traffic or real conditons always cars: on empty roads, in deserts on cliff tops, never impresses me! Now a car on a ski jump, fat lot of good that is!

Advertising agencies need staff who live in the real world.

Very Impressive!

However, as Gogogo said this is not really in the real world... I quite often get new Audis n stuff stuck behind me on my 1 hour slog in to work every day at approx 24 mph...
