another good commercial from that time was

this $20 dvd that explains how to avoid buying counterfeit mini coopers, which
1) is not a real problem that needed solving
2) they accidentally explain in the commercial in its entirety, and it takes a couple of seconds (they are just regular cars that look nothing like mini coopers but have white stripes painted on the hood)
3) they try to sell by showing fake mini coopers crashing into giant stacks of hay and exploding

if the fake mini cooper scammers exist, then they almost definitely managed to scam exactly one person: a vengeful dvd salesman who doesn't understand shapes, somehow had the budget of a b movie to spare on his quest for revenge, and was a big fan of the 2003 remake of the italian job
