  • Just like I remembered it!

  • Audio is really fucked dude fix it cause I'm now deaf from all the scratching sounds!

  • This is my favourite ad.. have tried to find the music ever since.. (without static). One of those ads I will never forget for some reason.. Master Cylinder you are a genius- went to your site- thanks for letting us know :o)

  • i mute the sound

  • Why do I still watching it, when the sound is fucked..

  • audio jest zrąbane i po pierwsze nazwa Jetta obowiązywała chyba na rynku amerykańskim i po drugie w Europie nazwa handlowa tego samochodu brzmiała Bora

  • Kurwa mać, weź człowieku po cholerę wstawiałeś reklamę w której chuj wie o co chodzi bo audio jest zjebane!!!

  • I was commissioned to write the song for VW by their ad agency , Arnold Worldwide, VW USA technically owns the song. I was asked to do a long version as part of a CD giveaway at the time as well. Search my name on bandcamp to find the link. Links aren't allowed in postings.

    -Peter DuCharme aka 'Master Cylinder'

    ps The static is kind of cool as a version. Like Neubaten.

  • OMG ITS NINA MYERS

  • i thought she was gonna suck his dick in the beginning like in that movie with the pie that killed that guy.

  • Still one of VW better/best ad campaigns. They do struggle so much in the North American economies and marketing wave. ):/

  • lmao omfg i instantly recognized that song from the Stickdeath video too. wow haha

    i def know i would've been bobbing my head to the beat with a huge grin on my face and then laugh it up with a bud for an hour

  • she is Stana Katic ??? the girl of serial CASTLE

    ANSWET PLEASE

  • The Weather Channel used this song on the local forecast in January/February 2010

  • I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed. Someone had to explain the joke of the ad it first appeared on tv.

  • Does anyone remember a car commercial in the late 90s or early 2000's with a retro car going by a guy and girl driven by a woman, and then flashforward to the present of a car driven by a older man passing a guy and girl?

  • my 2003 is silver, i still love it, it's still the best quality. I BET THE TOYOTA OWNERS ARE MADDDDD!

  • I've been looking for this commercial forever!! i love it. classic. the music brings me back

  • there was a song like this that had lyrics to it and i cant remember what is was,it dealt with mid life crisis or something like that. Does that ring a bell with anyone?

  • Midlife Crisis by Faith No More? Some similar elements, but totally different overall...

  • My car!!!!

  • omg, I remember this!

  • Anybody see the Stickdeath Version to this?

  • @iceman30five

    YEAH

  • @iceman30five

    yup. lol. I think it was called, Greenville Cruise. loool.

  • This commercial was from back in the day's when Jetta's were $14,000.

    Now they're like $30,000. Haha

  • starts at 16 grand but yeah basically thirty

  • @dividad1 nice, that made me laugh. I have a 2000 gls but want the new tdi!

  • un passat!

  • what was that thing she used to play music with? @_@

  • "Sometimes, everything just comes together"...

    This ad is SO subliminally sexual.

  • @TheFlipanator not really

  • awesome song

  • yo you guys are sopposed to be talking about how nice is the volskwagon not about other cars

  • I remember seeing this ad for the first time and not knowing what was so cool about it until my mom told me to watch the people. Thanx for p[ost.

  • The Mk4 Jetta. Dont ever roll your windows down.

  • RE: JoshChadwick

    Aint that the damn truth. Window regulators will break.

    Great commercial.

  • in germany the car is called Bora... :-D

  • Can someone tell me the name of this song?

  • A beautiful lady i met had a silver Jetta like this one and she had it serviced when i worked for Volkswagen in the summer of 2002.

  • and?

  • NINA! HURRY! SOMEONE TELL JACK!

  • Haha, maybe you didn't pay as much attention as I did to season 2 of 24 -- Nina was unforgettable! She was also on the recently cancelled "Trust Me".

    She could easily be Courtney's sister, I can certainly see the resemblance.

  • Can't believe its been 9 years since this commercial originally aired. I'm getting old :-(

  • i just bought the used one :)

  • Congratulations! Thats awesome, I had a 2002 Jetta 1.8T and it is probably the best car that I've had thus far.

  • OMG, that's Sarah Clarke one year before she "made it" in 24.

  • could someone give me the download link 2 this song playing

  • lol I remember I wanted a jetta after watching this commercial! I think I was 13 or 14.

  • Ha ha. you'd hate my Smart then. Turbo and 40bhp! ha ha.

  • German cars are the best! 5*

  • @Gcdeluxe that is true..!

  • Wrong! The 1.8T engine in the earlier cars had 150 hp, then was increased to 180 in later (2003+). If that wasn't enough, you could also get a VR6 with 174 hp and that was also increased to 201 in 2003. And don't forget the diesels! The torque from them will slaughter, *!!SLAUGHTER!!* any Honda.

  • I know the guy playing with the yo-yo at 0:17

  • I do too! We still mess with him over that lol

  • Wheel base:

    old jetta - 2511mm

    new jetta - 2578mm

  • Newer version has more space, obviosly.

  • master cylinder - jung at heart.... in Spain was the Bora's advert... incredible song!!

  • in this ad i was focused in the woman who appears beside the driver, she's sarah clarke from 24 i'm a big fan of her !

  • Could anyone send me this song?

  • i am buying a 2000 jetta tomorrow for $2500... heard it was a great car (if you have one tell me how it is)

  • So how are you liking the jetta?

  • Wow, that was quite a while ago I posted that comment.... Well actually, I went 2 the place & told them I wanted the car but wanted to take it on a test drive to show my mother. The guy gave me the key, I tried unlocking it & the alarm went off, he did not have the remote 2 turn it off either, He said that I shouldn't worry about it & it will only alarm for a few mins each time I start the car......I was like "this cant be serious" they tried to unhook it but couln't, I got a 2000 neon instead

  • ouch, if that was the only serious problem with the jetta, i would have just gotten the alarm repaired and had a nice german ride. now you're driving a dodge neon, that sucks man.

  • Yeah I jetta would have been nice but I love my neon. Only problem at all with it is there is no a/c... I get almost 32 mpg hypermiling it.

  • well, as long as you're happy with it i guess that's all that matters

  • Well the neon is about a thousand times better than my last car... 1988 Fiero, that car was in the shop more than it wasn't....

  • 35 while flooring it everywhere. i thought neons at least got crazy good mileage. so they look stupid, cause people to think you're a fag and dont even get amazing mileage?

  • What are you retarded? 32mpg is great for a car that's not diesel or a hybrid. That's how much Civics get.

  • its not really all that impressive. if youre going to get a 4 banger that looks dumb and doesnt have any get up and go you might as well get a 90's saturn. at least it wont cost anything to buy and itll get even better mileage. without hypermiling it or anything foolish. though i guess i should ask if the 35 is city or highway. and any civic ive been in is getting closer to 40. besides an si.

  • Excelente automovil, de lo mejor, muy aguantador, excelente ensamble, nunca se descompone, buena potencia, buen torque, la mejor cajuela de su segmento, buen espacio interior, buen nivel de equipamiento.

  • man, it's been ages since i saw a car with a tape deck.

  • in Mexico we have this marketing about the Jetta...

    ,...everyone has a Jetta, well at least in yr head.

  • i just bought one today i am only 16 and so far i love it

  • WoW!! this commercial bring back memories from 99 and yeah your right "Spiffy141" god bless youtube.

  • I was just going to point that out!

    Wow, 51,000 people remembered and enjoyed a commercial so much, they decided to look it up on Youtube 8 years later.

    That song has an impact on people, I tell ya.

  • yeah me too -i was hoping i would find this commercial sometime in the future and i did ---!!!YYYYEESSSSS!!!- it did have an impact on me-i wish i knew the song to it....i love it

  • The full song is by Moby. The entire song is in my FAV's

  • you know what really comes to mind?

    why the fuck would you walk around with a casette of Jung at heart?

  • That's Sarah Chalke, that evil Nina Myers from the series "24", in the passenger seat.

  • I MISS MY JETTA

  • hard to believe this is 8 years ago already. i still remember this commercial too, and rather liked it, hence why i am here to begin with. enjoy everyone.

  • didnt the guy originally say "that was weird" at the end of the commercial. this one has him saying "that was interesting" ??

  • YES!!! I believe there are two versions of this commercial. I remember at the time knowing there were two, but I can not find the other version anywhere.

    Anyone know or seen the other version? It was the same but a different end...

  • no, the guy originally said, "that was easy."

    just kidding. different commercial.

  • I've got about 5,000 copies of the long version on CD sitting in my closet. Theywere supposed to be dealer give aways. Nobody really uses CDs anymore but the spot's art director did a cool cover for it.

  • I'll give you 5 bucks for a copy!

  • I'll buy a copy!

  • Master Cylinder - Jung at Heart

  • Can any body tell me who's doing the music for this????? It's awesome!

  • It's Soapyhose by Land of the Loops

  • thats right!! I remember finding that song on Napster back in the day lol.. but I had forgotten who it was.. and why would 2 people give you thumbs down on this post.. crazy people.

  • Could you send me the song please!!!

  • Thank you for posting! I have been searching for this commercial for a long time. This is the only commercial I have ever seen that I actually enjoyed watching and never tired of. Then again I was in college in Ca at the time and let me tell you this was even more enjoyable high as a kite...

  • susun lan o araba VOLKSWAGEN BORA dır.

  • NINA MYERS IS SO HOT!

    I love Sarah Clarke! Nina needs to come back from the dead!

  • Incredibly well made. This is one of the very few commercials that did NOT get on my nerves no matter how many times it was shown on TV (which was pretty often as I remember).

    99% of the ads on TV start to irk me after about the 4th time they're shown (if not the 1st time). If more commercials could be as subtle, understated and interesting as this one, I might not be so quick to mute them or change the channel when they are shown.

  • The music is by Moby but not sure what the track is called, Hope that helps

    Great music, Using it for my GCSE Compotion exam piece.

    x

  • no it isnt. The band is called LAND OF THE LOOPS and the tune in SOAPYHOSE

  • Um, no. It's Jung at Heart by Master Cylinder.

  • The music is by me. I wrote it in 1999 for this ad as a commission by VW's agency Arnold Communications in Boston. -Peter DuCharme aka Master Cylinder

  • Congratulations dude - genuinely a great track.

  • what is the name and artist of the song in this vid

  • Everything about this commercial is perfect. This is the '99 Jetta. I went out and bought my Jetta the year this commercial came out so the commercial is almost 10 years old.

  • BEST MOTHERFUCKING AD EVER

  • say word captain

  • Awesome video especially the track!!!!

  • What is the state on the license plate?

  • Louisiana. They are in New Orleans.

  • california

  • The license plate for Louisiana in 2000 looks just like the plate for California, except for the name of the state.

  • Sweet

  • can somebody tell me what is that song ? i love this track and its the best V-DUB commercial ever

  • It's by Moby - I love it too - the first time I saw this ad it made me rush - always the sign of a good ad.

  • It's Master Cylinder - Jung At Heart.

    And this ad for me is the best one

  • woa - you're right! I DLd the song on p2p (a live legal version :) and it said it was Moby - apologies.

  • The best? I think not.

  • I love Sarah Clarke!!

  • i have the same exact car exept with hubcaps instead of rims, looks cool though

  • check out the same car on carbonpictures commercial

  • cassette lol. i remember when this commercial came out.

  • Wow, a tape... I love my new Jetta with XM Sat radio!

  • Quite possibly one of the coolest car commercials ever made. :) Thanx for posting it. :)

  • fenomenal y fantástico anuncio del jetta 2000

  • Did anyone recognize the woman in this VW commercial as "Nina", Jack Bauer's counterpart in the TV show "24"? I know the man is also an actor, but I cannot remember from where.

  • I found the song! If anybody wants it, just send me a message and leave your e-mail, and I'll gladly send it to you guys!

  • what is the name of this song?

  • please send it to me - I have a black 2000 GLS - I love that car.

  • I remember this...I love that song they're playing. It popped in my head yesterday and that's how I found this video, lol. I love the car too! The new ones are ugly.

  • I loved this add when it came out. You can tell it's an old add - she popped in a CASSETTE!

  • I was noticing the same thing!!  I'm sure there are people who would see that and ask, "What the heck did she put in there???" LMAO!!

  • OMG that lady in the car is Nina from the show 24....totally didn't notice at first.

  • one of the very best in a long line of very bests....

  • I remember watching this commerical with my mom and she using SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT with it and it was the funnist thing ever.

  • Nina Myers...She's out again,and she's riding a VW lol!!!

  • Who's Nina Meyers?..

  • Damn you Nina Meyers!! Just joking.

  • I think the name of the song is "Jung at Heart" by Master Cylinder

  • The song is called "Jung At Heart" created by Peter DuCharme specifically for the commercial.

  • Nina, you bitch!!!

  • but this version is a remix.

  • i'm 98% sure the song is by stereolab, not sure about the name tho.

  • This commercial has withstood the test of time and is still cool to me.

  • I always wondered if the song playing was a real song or if it was just created for the commercial. Does anyone else know?

  • the windshield washer was a metronome, the song was added in later by a guy name Phil DuCharm out of boston.

    the whole spot took 8 days to shoot.

  • Bullshit. Get you facts straight. I quote:

    "The soundtrack for the Jetta ad was composed by Pete DuCharme of Somerville, Mass., who was given the assignment from Arnold Communications creative director Lance Jensen after the spot had been filmed. DuCharme was specifically asked to write the music at 94 beats a minute. The cadence, it turns out, of a brisk walk ... so that the physical movement in the ads could be in harmony with the chords.

  • I was under the impression the song is called "Jung at Heart" and by the Master Cylinder.

    I spent ages trying to find it when this first came out.

  • It's a real song - available on an album called "The Classic Chillout album" - but it was created specifically for this commercial by a guy named Phil Ducharme (Master Cylinder is his D.J. name).

  • HAHA MEMORIES

  • I OWN A 2000 JETTA VR6 IT STOCK BUT STILL KICKHONDA ASS

  • you never see car commercials showing off their tape decks today...

  • I remember this! Damn, that was 6 years ago!?! Time has really been flying by fast! lol

  • hi, i'm looking for a higher resolution version of this video. Any idea where i can get it?
