Where was this commercial aired? The driver and front seat passenger were swapped.

@sneakers55 - These are all UK adverts.

This advert shows that you can do everything at an Esso service station from browsing at the latest cassette releases to having a wee.

The Esso at magor services still looks exactly like that. Thats a 20 year old design the tight bastards

I love the fact that the Tiger seems to magic the massive service station up in the middle of nowhere... in reality he would have broken down and the little girl would have either wet her knickers or had to wee in the gutter if they really were in the rural part of Scotland they were driving i n, and if they had found Petrol it would have been a small rural Jet/ Murco or Texaco franchise more likely!

Just got my ExxonMobil annual report today. They make money for sure. (And they aren't as expensive as Shell.)

MMMMMM!, thanks mom. Stale sandwiches and overpriced bottled water!

[nixcails]

Esso's still look like this today!

They even sell the cassettes!

[AnthonyUK]

Some even do more than just toilets/snacks/fags and toilets and music for the car;in some ESSO filling stations you can also obtain calor gas butane and propane cylinders as well for your mobile heaters/bbq's/caravans and motorhomes!
