My Motegi on Utube - wtf?

So a guy interested in my red Motegi says he has seen a tube video featuring my car.

No idea so I checks it out and found:


Whilst it is generally about loving 5th Gens again it does feature and promote my car, all without my knowledge.

Someone practising marketing or what??

Must be a bit strange to find something like that about your own car! If you're not happy you could contact they guy who put it up or put something up in the comments.

Can't actually see that video atm 'cause for some reason you tube isn't coming up as an https:// site right now (so my browser is blocking it)
nafemannathan had a similar discovery recently, for his car...

I could only listen to that video for so long! Why would you choose a robot with an echo to promote anything?! :|

This was what I stubbled on the other day (Looking for wheels)...

They've obviously got my image off of Pinterest, but I'm not even sure what they're advertising/promoting :?

I don't mind at all as it doesn't appear fraudulent at least.

I drokking hate pinterest.
I don't understand what it is, but as far as I'm concerned it's just drokking spam and should be killed with fire - it completely hogs google image search and then when you click on the image wanting to view it, it holds you to ransom unless you have a pinterest account.
