VW Transporter T3 used in advertising products & services

[NASkeet]

In recent years, I have noticed an increasing use of VW Transporter T3 [i.e. Vanagon in USA parlance!?!] being used to advertise a variety of products and services.

In recent weeks on British television, there has been an advertisement for Gala Bingo, featuring an all-yellow VW Transporter T3 minibus with what appear to be genuine Volkswagen 14 x 6 inch alloy wheels.

« Gala Bingo launches their new brand campaign that brings the joy back to bingo in Britain. »

« The integrated campaign, launching with a 60-second TV spot, radio, digital, OOH campaign and PR, looks to inspire the UK with the fun of bingo. »

« The campaign was shot by Noah Harris, of Agile films, across the North-West of England earlier in the year. The 60” launch spot – ‘Look Up’ – follows a group of five friends (and Kodie the dog) travelling in their yellow van from the bottom to top of Britain, in search of the perfect view of 5 hot air balloons creating an epic ‘bingo’ in the sky. The film features the track ‘I Saw the Light’ by Todd Rundgren. »

« To add an extra touch of joy for keen bingo players eleven iconic bingo calls have been hidden throughout the launch spot for viewers to discover. »

« ‘Look Up’ is supported by 3 product films, which will launch a series of new games for players to enjoy, and a Responsible Gambling message which sees the friends literally take a moment to pause. »

« The campaign’s digital, social, radio and OOH elements also launch today, with eye-catching bus wraps and taxi wraps across London. The campaign will continue across summer with PR events which are being managed by neverland in partnership with Capture Communications. »

« Sara Jolly, head of brand and content at Gala Bingo, said: “Bingooooooooooooo.” »

« The campaign will be amplified by digital, social, radio and out-of-home (OOH) elements including bus wraps and taxi wraps across London. »

^^^That's what I thought.

Yes, it is called a T25 in Great Britain, or “Brickie,” and in both cases *I think* only there…

The nickname eludes me, unless it’s windy at camp and its true and real purpose comes out.
