This is from back in 2001 but I just had to post it for all to see.

The advertisement features an African woman whose breasts were blown sideways in a passing Freelander vehicle's tailwind. Landrover must publish an apology in all the publications that ran the ad. Gavin Green, Land Rover director of communications said, from London, "we cannot have our company or our brand portrayed in this way", and the Hunt Lasus advertising agency is no longer being used by Land Rover.
