This Vauxhall advert from 1973 can safely be filed under 'nope'.

VAUXHALL GRIFFIN Armour Class: 12 Hit Points: 60 Speed: 30ft, fly 80ft Beak: +6 to hit, 1d8 damage Claws: +6 to hit, 2d6+4 damage

this reminds me of driving through a city

That's obviously a completely loopy advertisement. But there's something about the simplicity, naivety and lack of cynicism in this kind of thing that gives me an overwhelming sense of nostalgia, and feelings of sadness for lost innocence. But yes. It's nuts.

It wouldn’t be quite so bad if they hadn’t used the entire costume budget on the upper third of the body, leaving the rest in that slightly unnerving body stocking thing!!

It’s got DOCTOR WHO AND THR DAEMONS energy!

I’ll see your Vauxhall advert and raise you this scary shell advert 😂😱

A horror classic, that one!

Looks like it inspired a lot of The Mighty Boosh

Volk Horror

Oh, bravo! 👏🏽👏🏽
