Was just watching a Castol commercial on Spike TV, anyone notice the MCS in it? It starts off with a Mini key going into an ignition, then it shows some other car's motor, looks like a V6, then has shots inside an engine, then it shows a MCS stickshift. One of those things I guess.

It shows a MINI tach too...but the oil advertised isn't synthetic is it?

Using a MINI in a non-synthetic-oil commercial...for shame...

And MINI recommends Castrol synthetic. You think Castrol would figure this out. Ah well, ad agencies are not known for being intelligent in such times.
