  • very nice advert.....Excellent car

  • She has such a beautiful voice!

  • Is it weird that I find that scar very sexy?

  • been looking for this for years ...love this ad

  • i like it

  • is this an UK advert?

  • I know it's cliched tacky and manipulative but I still like it

  • I used to love this advert when i was a child, i've always remembered it. The car looks so ancient now. I feel so old

  • @pug206girly Personally I think the car still looks modern today. A timeless design, and one of Peugeot's best. Unlike the big fat bloated things they produce today with a massive great mouth slapped on the front

  • touching :)

  • anyone know where i can find a version of this song?

  • @rhystheyeti Glee - True Colors

  • remembered this from when i was younger, only remembered the shark an the song didnt know it was for this car took me ages to find it haha

  • Most touching ever advert in the world.

  • awesome song even awesomer lyrics

    this add is truly memorable , not usually one for remembering adds - BUT - this one is a classic simply cos of the lyrics in this song and those shark attack scenes , especially the outcome of the shark attack sc enes - real bravery for true love

  • this song had such an impact on me and my cousins and it reminds me of them and is the reason why iam gettin a rainbow tattoo in honour of them what an advert! xx

  • k linda estaba de moda cuando llegue a españa hace 10 años ...cada vez que la veo me entran ganas de llorar , tantas cosas pasan en 10 años

  • I actually just started crying, remembering watching this all those years ago. Thank you so much.

  • omg this was the 1st time i ever heared this song. i remember it to this day the 1st time i saw it.. i wanted to save my future wife from a shark.

  • I have this car and I like it :P

  • this is so moving , hope if the time ever comes I can be just as brave for the one I love , brilliant ad , has stuck in my head since I first seeing it

  • PTSD.....  Thanks.

  • Was a full version of this song ever released?

  • this advert was one of my favourites when i was youngerrrr !!

  • I drive this! haha

  • Fantastic advert!! Only just been able to find it again after all these years!

    I wonder if that is a real Shark bite Scar or if it is make up??

  • Wow, like someone below me, this is one of the only adverts which I have ever remembered, well done and thanks! :D

  • a beautiful song and a beautiful advert. always makes me feel stronger.

  • omg!! :_) I've been searching for this ad too but today I find it without searching... I love it maybe one of the reasons is 'cause my fav movie of all time is Jaws but the ad by itself has so good feelings... :_) beautiful.

    Thanks for posting!!

  • Great ad, Great car!!

  • Excellent commercials from Peugeot as always. You can see the older one from 1995 too. If only they spent a little more time re-doing their driver/passenger security as even a 1992 Mondeo performs better in a crash. Yeah but the Mondeo is bound to crash as it's handling is rubbish T.T. Anyways Great car, Great commercial, end of story.

  • Beautiful song and this advert will stay in my memory for the rest of my life. 0:53 is the best part. The woman has a flashback of her partner saving her all those years ago and she looks away realising that she is with her first and only true love. It's a shame that these days everyone always has affairs because they think that it's natural but that's so far from the truth. Sometimes your soulmate is right in front of you but you can't always see it.

  • @matt31781 excellant comment mate so ture all the best

  • Mejor Anuncio Rodado En Europa Año 2000.

  • i stand and fight

  • @finerhope231 alright Leonidus, I don't think the question actually required an answer. nob

  • I remember this from when I was a teenager. Such a nice advert: the boy saving the girl, and they're still together years later, and the cute-sounding girl singing True Colours.

    Thanks for uploading.

  • BTW, I've been seeking this video for years. I even wrote to Peugeot at one point, and they couldn't help. Thanks!

  • which version of the song is this?

  • This advert had such a strong impact on me when I was little. I remember crying watching it cause I thought it was so nice what the boy did for the girl. Wow, must be the only good car advert I've ever seen.

  • I like Cindy Lauper's version. But this is a beautiful version.

  • run or fight ,stand or fall

  • The 406 was probably the last decent Peugeot and the adverts were great, still memorable. What the hell has happened since? The cars look like godawful shite, are awful to drive and the adverts are all that 'drive sexy' bollocks. Come on Peugeot.....

  • The Daily Telegraph once wrote that all the car companies kept their own 406 as a standard to aim for. Luc Besson certainly liked it. Anyway, the 205, 306, 405 and 406 were all drawn by Pininfarina (yeah, the same Pininfarina Ferrari uses: cf 406 coupé & 456GT), then Peugeot decided they wanted to draw their own cars. Seems the effort need to do that was at the expense of the car's soul.

  • remeber this running inbetween the tenth kingdom on sky 1 when in was little cant believe its on youtube :D this is one of the only adverts i have remembered thank you!!

  • You welcome :)

  • @jessicapye1 this is exactly where i remember it from!

  • I have been searching for ages, couldn't remember the product or the song..Just remembered the advert from my childhood. Gotta get me a Peugeot now!!

  • i think this song it´s a cover made by Dominique Moore... i´m not sure

  • argh he got bitten by a shark!

  • This advert is only a minute long, but like many who have commented, it is so powerful it has remained in my memories. Its nice to see passion excelling just wanting to market a car, adverts like this simply arn't made anymore.

  • I remember seeing this when I was 8, and just being struck by the emotiveness of it. Can't believe it's on youtube, it made my day lol :]

  • @karonhisake I was 8 too, it takes me back, that's for sure. How time flys huh? :(

  • Ultimately, the peugeot 406 is a legend because of this advert and the 1995 one featuring m people. These adverts showed how passionate peugeot was about the 406, the cinematography was amazing the choice of song and the storyline were so amazing that it went skin deep, which is why so many people remember it. The advert basically said you didn't have to buy a 3 series ect. to show how great you were, because buying the 406 and being modest was being true to yourself. No other car was the same!

  • Despite being a great ad overall, there are a number of things I don't understand.

    The overall message is: 'Stand or fall/run or fight'....'you know who you are' (i.e which type of person you are: because you dealt with adversity in your life like this...

    The shark story clearly articulates this theme and is therefore the strongest part of the advert by far, but what do the other parts really say on this?

  • ohhh q recuerdos =)

  • The model featured looks awesome. I have a thing for Peugeots - it's like the styling of their cars is the best. I need to have owned a Peugeot in my lifetime. And a Saab. And a Volvo.

  • Ah such childish pleasure in seeing this advert - we used to have sing-a-longs in primary school because of it =D

  • i remeber watching this as a child during the adverts of 10th kingdom, its always stuck in mind

  • I think thats how i saw the advert too! such a good movie :P and such a good advert, it stuck in my mind too and i just had to search it on youtube

  • same, its always stuck in my mind, i saw it when i was 8, im now 19 ive been looking for it for like the last 3 years, im so glad i finally found it, i wish they had released this version of the song.

  • how long ago was this?

  • does anyone know if you can get this song anywhere??

    Just love how simple and beatful it is

  • Its a Cindi Lauper song so it shouldn't be too hard to find, there is also a lot of cover versions.

  • i havent seen this advert since i was a kid, and since then iv loved this song, and tried my hardest to find this ad, would love a recording of the girl singing it

  • I tried for ages to find this ad!

  • This for me is the best version of True Colours. A pity the full version wasn't released. Or if it was i'd loved to know.

  • a very UNCOLOURFUL ad

  • get a life you tit. the 406 was right at the top of its class for years. there still very good cars today. loads of taxi companys wouldnt use them if they were crap would they now?

  • yea they are i work for peugeot

  • God I remember this advert, Loved it then and still love it now.

  • wow, this brings bak old memories!!

  • i dont get it

  • what don't you get?

  • the little girl singing makes it even better so beautiful, love the way she says though at the beginning! cute

  • OMG i remember this from when i was little! Awesome

  • is this an old advert?

  • yes

  • this made my day. love it =)

  • this brings back memories :)

  • maybe i'm too sentimental, but i don't find it cliche or bad.

    if she had rescued him, would you see his continued gratitude as a pathetic obligation?

    being cynical is one thing, but you're just being patronising. 'a man wrote this advert' - quite pretentious, don't you think?

  • this is possibly the greatest advert ever made, all new ads seem to be shit.

  • Nunca había visto la versión original.

  • Well now you do :P

  • Woo! Thankyou soooo much, been searching for this for years, recorded it onto VHS (see how old!!) and lost it.. ahh good old adverts!

  • I remeber that advert from years ago, i loved it so much

    Dominique xx

  • Yes I've found it from some guy on Limewire program.

  • thank you thank you thank you

    i have been looking for this advert literally for years!

    it's amazing

    and i know it's only an advert but it makes me think maybe humanity has a chance!

  • ME TOO ! I have always favoured this version with the girl singing it, I have always known it was on a peugeot advert but have only now tracked it down. Do you know who sings it ? I really want to here this little girl singing the whole song if it exists, can you help ?

  • That little girl who sing this... contact me few days ago here on youtube, i can give you her user name if you want.

  • yes please !

  • yeah i would please :)
