  • I remember this ad, must have been 1997, I wanted a Puma instantly -it's taken 15 years, but got one now!!

  • @sgreen757

    Same here...but well worth the wait!!

  • Clever and well done. I like the way they worked in footage from Bullitt. The motorcycle was a nice touch. I don't recall seeing this on TV.

  • Loved this advert when it came out the his mustang out of bullitt and his bike out of the great escape by the looks of it brilliant.

  • Do Steve's kids need money so badly that they need to pimp their dead father's image? 

  • The best commercial of all times!!

  • The track is just called 'bullitt theme' and it was composed by Lalo Schifrin

  • Steve McQueen and Ford Puma? Blasphemy!

  • Comment removed

  • Does anyone know the name of tune being played in this ad please I would like to find it

  • @100Emman

    It's the main track from the 1968 film "Bullitt" with Steve McQueen. Watch the film, it's a classic....and the car chase with the Ford Mustang driven by Steve McQueen is legendary (that's why you see the Mustang parked in the garage)

  • Anyone know what the music is?

  • When I was 18 I bought myself a little 1.4 Puma. I'm now 22 and it's just, sadly, failed its final MOT... but only after I managed to get 181000 miles out of it! Go Puma!! :D

  • I bet the CGI artist in this got paid a SHIT TON. It looked so real for being cut Bullitt images!

  • LMFAO the Puma is the SHITTIEST piece of turd ever created. It looks fucking retarded lmfao it's not even girly, girls would be insulted by that hahaha.

  • @princepersia1

    Have you ever driven one? It's 123 bhp which for a car this size and weight is really good. You also have the racing puma with 153 bhp and that's just insane to drive....

  • What the hell...why do they make an ad for that ugly crappy Puma with great Steve McQueen and the great music from Bullitt??? It would have been better with the new Mustang. FAIL

  • One of the best car adverts ever inspired from a classic movie 'Bullitt'. 

  • Thats creepy

  • I liked the commercial when it first appeared. Grat how they blended McQueens Face in. But now that i sat in a Puma, I can't describe how dissapointed I am.. They gave away such a phantastc idea for such a cheap bit of platic crap. :(

  • It was a Triumph pretending to be a Wehrmacht-BMW in the movie.

  • What is the name of this peace of music??? ANYONE??

  • @georgekaplanful

    it is "Bullit" Maintitle by Lalo Schiffrin

  • Does anyone know what kind of bike is stored in the garage next to the puma??????

  • @georgekaplanful i think a triumph grand prix (just guessing)

  • @yorrickwi

    It was a Triumph pretending to be a Wehrmacht-BMW in the movie.

  • was that actually steve mcqueen or a mock up from bullett?

  • @theprodicalsonishere no it wasnt steve mcqueen driving because he died in 1980 .

  • @n4than2 ...LMAO

  • i dont know about any one else but id rather take the mustang out for a drive rather than the puma.

  • Nice! Lot of rotoscoping work done.

  • Why cant all car ads be as cool as this? Why do the have to dance about like rollerblades he hmm Nissan?

  • The irony of this advertisement is that it was filmed in San Francisco, California, in the United States, where the Puma is not sold.

  • ''Steve McQueen would never drive that''

    The same McQueen who drove and loved a Mini,being a man's man he was more interested in the spirit of the car over anything else. The Puma, has spirit by the bucket loads.There is more to a car than BHP for wich most youtube posters seem to have a hardon over.

  • it's a joke, steve on a puma, ?''''''''''

  • Love the fact that McQueen's been introduced to a whole new generation with these commercials but yeah, I can only see him in a car as tough looking as the Ford Mustang. This one is kinda sissy looking for him.

  • Hehehe,the only cool thing a bout this add,or the car is its driver,..Steve McQueen.Sigh,...

  • cant beat a mk1 or mk2 escort

  • @saltyluvssofas

    cant beat a mk1 or mk2 spitfire!

  • "He must have made that before he died."

  • lol

  • The backing track to this ad is Bullitt [Main Title] by Lalo Schifrin. For it's day the CGI was cutting-edge. I guess as technology evolves we expect, even demand, more. Let's at least acknowledge this ad broke new ground in the late 1990s for car advertising. So the Puma is just an old Ford Fiesta in an evening dress. Who cares? I don't. I remember the Top Gear team having great fun road testing it. And the 1.7 version I've owned since brand new still manages to make me smile.

  • It;s a hairdressers car, there is no way in hell McQueen would drive a Puma.

    There is a great book called 'mcqueens machines' that goes into his collection of cars etc in decent detail, Puma- i just can't see it

  • he looks like the guy my dad sold his puma to...

  • Done so well, almost seamless, it really IS him driving it - very clever stuff! Puma also got 99th best ever drivers car in a recent Evo test....

  • love pumas ive got the same one in the ad rock on

  • have got one of these. my frist car!!!

  • what is this tune called

  • I believe its off the musical score for the movie "Bullitt".. The score is by Lalo Schifrin .. As to exactly which track it is or what its called, that I don't know.

  • @aggerskrtel "Bullitt- Main Title" by Lalo Schifrin, from the Bullitt soundtrack.

  • The best tribute that we could have done to the great Steve McQueen.

  • uuuuh, I love this car. I was like 15 or 16 when it came out... I dreamt of a Puma being my first car, and wished to be turning 18 instantly while I was pressing my nose against the windows of a local Ford dealer every now and then. In the end I bought a Ford KA which I'm still driving today - and you know what? I love it! It got great looks, is reliable, drives like a charm and is built to resist... And it bears many beautiful memories.. Also: hey, it's a genuine Ford :-)

  • ford are my favourite car brand lol there better than any japernese cars i think lol thanks for commenting on the video :D

  • @n4than2 no their not japanese cars r da best.just 4 da record i own a 1.7 puma and a toyota glanza v turbo and id pick da toyota everytime

  • @powera85 japs are better than fords eh? Ever heard of the Mustang, the mk1 + 2 cortina, mk 1+2 escort, capri?

  • @powera85 japanese imports are better than fords eh? Ever heard of the Mustang, the mk1 + 2 cortina, mk 1+2 escort, capri?

  • @powera85 imports are better than fords eh? Ever heard of the Mustang, the mk1 + 2 cortina, mk 1+2 escort, capri?

  • @AtomicGarden1983 Im the same! I remember when I was 16 cycling past the ford dealership and dreaming of it being my first car. Im now 25 and just bought one im so excited!

  • @AtomicGarden1983 I know exactly how you feel, my next door neighbour brought one brand new back in 2000 11 years later and I'm still wanting this to be my first car, hopefully going to buy a 1.4 puma (i'm only 18 and insurance wont let me jump to a German car str8 away after the puma a tt compact or kompressor sports coupe) anyway just wanted to share this with you (seems like we are on the same boat)

  • Cool ad. Mcqueen was the dog's bollocks. Coolest movie star ever.

  • the ford mustang is absoluty better we all know that lol

  • the Ford Mustang is the best!!

  • a puma would beat a mustang through the corners though.

  • @J4KEH4M Only if your grandma were driving it

  • @sanatatic: Well... no. Partly as she's not THAT great a driver... but mostly as power is useless in corners unless you can use it. The Mustang is very heavy and will lurch about (the old ones will be a million times worse) but the Puma is small and light so will be able to corner faster without lurching about, but as soon as the road straightens the Puma would be just a speck in the 'Stangs rear view mirror...

  • @J4KEH4M Never heard of a locking diff have we? Nevermind, carry on.

  • @sanatatic: Locking what? Nah, JK. The Mustang is a great car, but it won't go round a corner as well as a small sports car.

    Furthermore, the Mustang has too much power (if ever there were such a thing), the wheels would just spin and make smoke...

  • I don't think Ford regurgitating scenes from McQueens movies in order to sell crappy compact cars is cool at all. I think its shamefull.

  • Notice Mcqueen getting out of the puma?

    Taken from Bullitt when he gets out of the Sunshine cab but only in mirror form as he really had a right hair parting. I spoke to the production director at Y&R UK who made it.

  • there both good cars.

  • the puma should disappear at the end not the mustang.

  • true lol mustang well better

  • love it!
