[Healeys] Fwd: LKN Sports Car Group: Neat Shell/Ferrari Commercial

[Chris Dimmock]

Bob,
It's a great Ad. Apparently it was one of the most expensive TV commercials
ever made, if not the most expensive, when it was made about 6 years ago. Some
of it was filmed in Australia, on the sea cliff bridge

well as many other countries, so we got it on TV here too.
Just awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Best
Chris
