Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted June 3, 2020 Posted June 3, 2020 You may laugh but when there was no advertising standards law, some truly outrageous claims were made for products. One of the worst from the 1970s was one I have probably mentioned before and that is Mota-Nu engine reconditioning pellets. Approximately ten millimetre diameter spheres of a silver/grey metallic substance, about six of them, were dropped into your petrol tank and over a period of time they deposited metal on bores and bearings which rejuvenated your engine. I say 'spheres' but they were balls... Quote

pistonbroke Posted June 3, 2020 Posted June 3, 2020 I remember putting a Tiger in my tank years ago , recommended by the Esso fuel co. Not sure what happened to it though Quote
XTR2Turbo Posted June 3, 2020 Posted June 3, 2020 Surely we have some of these fish in the North Sea. Explains why fishing rights are contentious to Brexit negotiations Quote
Nemesis Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 'Guinness is good for you' and Putting that awful synthetic orange juice called Sunny Delight in a fridge were some of the most successful ad campaigns ever. So now that I've achieved a lovely orange skin tone to rival Mr Dickinson and the liver failure has turned my eyes a nice hue of yellow I'll take My maximum allocation of the super unleaded fish please.

Rusty Nuts Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 I'm putting my name down for the maximum 800, as a child I never got to collect enough Bazooka wrappers to get myself some X-Ray specs. Quote
