Quatro advert - 1984

[webbhead92]

I had one of those cards. If memory serves me correct it was a competition and if the code on the card matched the code in the magazine adverts you would win something or other. (I didnt).

[Wintericecrystal]

Everything I like they stop making. Quatro is yet another example.

[disjoinedchip2]

awesome drink this and tab clear..

[MadCommodore]

This actually tasted nice though!! Unlike the rubbish Coca Cola produce now :o/

[spudcat007]

I remember my cousin getting caught shoplifting cans of quatro, and my grandad giving him a good beating for "pinching monkey piss"...... Memories from back in the day!

[vania1013]

you can buy quatro from a old website called retrogeto but he charges £35 for a can bit steep for me

[madabbafan]

I remember the advert but never tried the stuff.

[chodetaculous]

I want to try some

[optimistic75uk]

Yeah CUNTEN sounds great reminising. D'ya remember Odduns crisps, I think by Smiths?

[brianjameskelly]

I miss this drink so much!! Try a can of mango rubicon, which I believe tastes similar... Thoughts?

[iberia77]

The drink of my Youth!!!!!! They HAVE to bring this stuff back....

[Cathain78]

I can't even remember what it tasted like, I just remember fuckin' loving the stuff

[cronauer1985]

[rayflute]

@cronauer1985 Lucky bugger! Any chance of scanning it? :)

[cronauer1985]

@rayflute will try

[cronauer1985]

@rayflute have scanned it now

[fivepointsix]

@cronauer1985 i had one back in the day but i fear it is long gone.

[pab70]

As they say on the Absolute 80's radio station when they have a brek for the adverts

"I'm off for a fag and a can of quatro!"

[cazomanone]

Fucking loved Quatro

[InterMeLocal]

What a fantastic Advert, they should re-launch using this advert again.

[faunflynn]

I collected the cans cut them open flattened them out and covered the walls of my bedroom in them. I liked the logo. The drink was ahead of it's time . The advert was used as an example of good copy writing in the OU's media studies degree module.

They would show the original animatic and then how it was all made. Weird.

[Ajuinvaliid]

this ad is way more awesome than most of the ads nowdays :O

[CUNTENFUCKER]

A 1/4 of Cola Cubes, a packet of Bitza Pizza and a can o' Quatro and change from a quid. Home in time for Kick Start.

[bumpyjason]

@CUNTENFUCKER with Peter Purvis ha ha

[DingKong]

Classic ad! I rember liking the drink until about 3/4 of the way through... then it seemed a little 'sickly'

[keybox8]

quatro was niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice

[joshuajouet]

It was called TAB Clear and I believe was supposed to have been some kind of clear Cola - I didn't like it.

Quatro f'in rocked though !!!!!

[RabidRaccoonUK]

Does anyone remember a short-lived fruit drink that came out in the early 90's (maybe late 80's) that was still but came in transparent "cans"? They were actually plastic, but in the shape of a normal can with a metal top with ringpull. I can't remember what they were called. Cool containers, but horrible, bitter tasting drinks!

[robertroyfellows]

it was called TAB i think

[RabidRaccoonUK]

I remember TAB cola, but not a fruit drink.

[67genxer]

yep, down the shops for a quatro and a wispa or maybe a caramac, scampi fries anyone? crunchies used to huge, now they have severe shrinkage. huh.

[magicsteve07]

man used to love this drink what happened to it?

[voon100]

Fogotten about this drink.

[scruffjones]

aaahhh pasion fruit quatro !! mmmm

[FieldmasterFox]

Here I wonder if they did a cherry pepsi advert in the late eightes.

[hammersboy72]

Yeah great drink!

I remember in our school a kid pissing in a empty quatro can and giving it to another kid to drink. They were fun days!

[rayflute]

His pee must have been on the green side! ;)

[iposters]

[zarathustra2k1]

@iposters Damn right! I loved this drink! :)

[am8mugh]

[sub333]
