Ford model shows its evil side

These old Ford SportKa adverts may make you chuckle, although they drew outcry from animal rights groups when they first appeared.

Part of a campaign for the blue oval’s small car in 2003, the pigeon-bashing clip briefly appeared on TV before being banned. Meanwhile, the cat-decapitating advert was never officially released but went viral worldwide.
