Hey I was cruising at a leisurely 50mph down M4 towards blacktown today and noticed this huge Yokahama tyres billboard just before the cumberland highway exit of the M4. It's on the side of an overpass or something and has a picture of a real red mini (not bini) with bonnet stripes and a guy and his girlfriend looking happy :D

You can't miss it, the ad is like 20 metres wide :wink:

Just thought I'd mention it...

aww maks your responsible for takin a pic
in a truck you'd have an excellent view
a minority of us drive minis and views would be blocked

of course if you're alone or workin dont think about it
no more accidents for you young man

Sorry! I only thought about taking a pic after I got home and told my wife... :(

Attention: if you are planning to go down M4 towards Blacktown, bring your camera :wink:

We've had these signs in Melbourne for quite a few months now. I think it has been talked about before on the forum. I actually rang Yokohama and tried to get them involved in MINISHOW. They were very interested but then they never replied again.

Oh well. There loss.

There is a Yokohama bill board when travelling from the City over the Westgate Bridge towards Tulla freeway somewhere. Saw it on the way home from autosalon on Friday night.
