BUGGER

$25.00

Classic Novelty Plate from the 1990’s

Description

The BUGGERB plate came into being as a result of the infamous Toyota Hilux TV commercial of the late 1990s (made by Saatchi & Saatchi in New Zealand)

The ad was designed to appeal to NZ and Aussie Hilux buyers based on a series of hilarious farming mishaps, with each incident provoking the same one word response b bBugger!b B In fact bbuggerb and bbugger meb were pretty much the only dialogue used in the commercial, which was a big factor in its larrikan appeal to Australian and New Zealand audiences.B While the use of a word that describes sodomy could have caused great offence in other countries, its wide-held acceptance as a laconic slang term in Australia and NZ (to describe great annoyance or disgust at something) made it unique to TV screens in that part of the world.

In Australia, the advert gained universal praise for its irreverance and laid-back humour. It also got the point across about the Hilux pick-up truckbs legendary power, strength and durability, which was the whole point of course. Itbs just a really funny ad.

Important note about images we provide for novelty signs and plates: Just as we sometimes see that bpricing is subject to change without noticeb, so too are bdesigns subject to change without noticeb. In 99.99% of cases, what you see on Dixiebs website or brochure is what you get. However, there are the odd times when designs have changed in some small way (eg: maybe a logo moves to a different location on the item, or the colour changes). Sometimes this information doesnbt always trickle down until the new designs are manufactured and shipped to Dixie. We hope this is helpful and understandable.
