Renault Espace Ad Spawns More WTFness

Oh. OK. Now we get it. The Renault Espace is soooooooooooooooo spacious it takes 70 years to to climb into it and enjoy all it has to offer before exiting. WTF? So, in 70 years we are to believe the car hasn’t changed at all from exposure to the elements? The trees haven’t grown at all? The condition of the road hasn’t changed?

Please. Tell us we are completely misunderstanding this commercial and there’s a joke we aren’t getting because if we have it right, it’s one of the lamest ads we’ve ever seen. Unless, of course, it’s local Italian (where the ad cam from) humor escapes our admittedly lame, very unworldly American sensibilities.
