I've seen it and it's hilarious! I have a 1988 240 DL wagon. But in my youth I drove VWs and so did my husband. We had those vans with the windows on top. It was part of the VW culture to rock back and forth in your seat when going up a hill, to "help" the car make it on a grade. Poking fun at oneself and one's peers, laughing all the while. Look closely on this BMW ad and you'll see the people in the Volvo doing the same, rocking back and forth. Both me and my husband roared when we saw this ad! Sorry, kitty, I'm not offended...
