I think the link is tedious between low emissions and saving a croc.

yeah, but seems like a client demand (two point brief), no? one that the creatives actually turned into a respectable effort at tying lost-cost and low-emissions. can't ding the work for that.

(although, i am taking the liberties of making a couple assumptions).

lol would have been funnier with just the two "ecological" and "economical" on top of images...

cheers,

it only makes me think about a poor crocodile who is turned into a wallet. my initial link with the Golf was that it had a crocodile interior.

How can anyone be this dumb?

I laughed out loud when I saw this. Not sure if that was the reaction they were going for, but nonetheless, pretty good.

I agree, with dlue, (Wordnerd u really don't know??)

Good line I believe. For the fancy thing lovers who doesn't give a damn for the ecology, he points out the economic aspect. Much more better message than BMW....
