To promote BMW’s certified pre-owned vehicles and the new unlimited mileage warranty, BMW and creative agency KBS have created a humorous campaign directed by Master of None’s Eric Wareheim via production house PRETTYBIRD.
The premise is that the warranty helps customers feel so good about their decision to buy a used BMW they will “never want to stop driving.” That even applies to this spot titled “Wedding” in which a father brings the bride down the aisle in a pre-owned BMW.
The car itself becomes a comedic character/prop in the commercial.

Carmaker Dacia, owned by Renault, is taking part in the legendary Dakar Rally, a grueling long distance race where drivers take on the Saudi Arabian desert.
To mark Dacia’s first-ever participation in the Dakar Rally, Publicis Conseil created this film which presents a world of sand that is as spectacular as it is challenging for drivers and their vehicles. Rune Milton directed this visceral, hyper-realistic piece via production house Wanda.
As a bonus, the drivers of the official Dacia team, The Dacia Sandriders, make an appearance: Nasser Al-Attiyah, Sébastien Loeb and Cristina Gutièrrez. The work has been released in Europe on television and digital.
