I thought this old Nissan Cedric newspaper ad was very funny:
Nissan Cedric 330 newspaper ad
Nissan Cedric 330 newspaper ad

Now would the ad imply the Cedric is better than the carriage in the background or is it supposed to be just as good as the carriage? At least the man and his wife (presumably head of the clan) seem to favor the Cedric over the carriage!
