Free Bag from Honda
 
Go to http://www.honda.co.uk/

Click on 'Make Life Better' at the bottom right hand of the screen where the 2 birds are flapping and then click on 'Get Your Free Bag' on the bottom left.

A little bag for the bits and pieces :p:

Have you seen that advert on TV. How bizarre. But as a fan of Diesels i think i might go test one out soon

Just done it - it was still there... :confused:

edit - you have to click on the "make life better" link in the bottom right, then you get a flash screen, and bottom left of that (just below the actual flash) is the free bag link..

Re: Free Bag from Honda
 
Well I just tried it yet again & the link is no longer there for me?

I can see the one to watch the advert, but the left hand one is no longer displayed. I have refreshed & cleared my cache etc.

Re: Free Bag from Honda
 
I am not seeing the link either.... have checked the source as well, and i can see nothing that would put a link on the page...

maybe the link comes and goes at different times of day to prevent people doing what we are all doing and just going on the site to get a free bag!

nope - it is all flash - the whole page.... you just get deeper and deeper into the flash code..

I even tried : http://multimedia.honda-eu.com/diesel/ (the undelying URL for this page, but that is exactly the same...

I cannot see why it would work for some, and not for others....

(I have cleared my cache and force loaded the page - still there.)

zoombini 14-10-2004 16:52
Re: Free Bag from Honda
 
Maybe its not there because they have logged outr IP from previous orders & it now stops us ordering again ?

zovat 14-10-2004 17:03
Re: Free Bag from Honda
 
I have now logged in from a seperate location, and it is no longer there .

(on a different machine in a different location...)

Re: Free Bag from Honda
 
working fine for me from teesside :)

Gareth 14-10-2004 19:16
Re: Free Bag from Honda
 
Anyone else in or near Swindon fancy a little trip over to the factory to see what's actually inside the bags before we sign-up? If it's a bag of turds from the people on the production line, then I'm not interested ...even if it is free of charge!

Gareth 14-10-2004 19:17
Re: Free Bag from Honda
 
Oh, and just checked again, and it is still there for me..... although the link isn't very obvious (check underneath the Diesel logo and the 1st statue)

...although trying to sign-up for one says they're unable to process my request :mis:

I get the same from home and work using both FF and IE at home, and IE at work......

apologies for the quality for the pic...can only save files as bmp at work so had to go with low quality to make it small enough to upload ;)

JohnHorb 14-10-2004 20:00
Re: Free Bag from Honda
 
OK for me. Maybe depends on video driver/settings, e.g. no of colours?

Re: Free Bag from Honda
 
I thought the wide thread bug had been fixed?

Has anyone played the rabit game on that website & collected all the carrots & visited all 9 enviroments? (there is a chance to win an ipod) if you get a good score (there is a time limit in the game)

Btw. the link for the free bag doesnt present itself for me either.

i got my bag, i think they made it from Diesel. Either that or they made it smell so bad so that you dont smell the Diesel fumes from the car?
