It’s that exciting time of year again when the most eagerly awaited car advertisement makes its debut, showcasing the latest installment of Supercheap Auto’s Best Performing Oils. This year’s commercial features a star-studded lineup of celebrities letting loose and unleashing horsepower like never before.
A Behind-the-Scenes Look
In this edition, The MaD Garage follows rally champion Molly Taylor as she makes her fourth appearance in the Best Performing Oils series. Viewers are treated to an exclusive behind-the-scenes glimpse at the untold stories that won’t be featured in the TV commercial. Notably, this marks the first time the MaD Garage has been invited to showcase one of its own cars—a classic XY GT rally car. Stay tuned to the channel for more exciting content from this gravel classic.
Authenticity Over CGI
Unlike many contemporary television commercials that rely heavily on computer-generated imagery and elaborate camera tricks, the SCA Best Performing Oils campaign is refreshingly authentic. This unique behind-the-scenes look highlights the extensive efforts of the production crew to create genuine chaos on set. What you see is the real deal.
Star-Studded Cast
The advertisement features an impressive roster of celebrities from the automotive and racing worlds. Although they may be in costume, these are the actual personalities you know and love. Set in the quaint town of Kyogle in northern New South Wales, the community serves as a perfect backdrop, resembling a 1970s time capsule ideal for staging the outrageous cops-and-robbers car chase that unfolds.
Unprecedented Filming Experience
This year’s production stands out as one of the most extravagant in the history of Supercheap Auto’s Best Performing Oils. For the first time, actual public roads were closed to film the action, which adds to the authenticity of every slide, rolling burnout, and doughnut captured on camera.
Meet the Cast of Characters
Sit back and enjoy this behind-the-scenes journey featuring the Mighty Car Mods boys as bumbling bank robbers, and The Inspired Unemployed portraying equally inept police officers. The detective team on the hunt for justice includes notable figures such as Grant Denyer, Craig Lowndes, Chaz Mostert, Ryan Wood, Thomas Randle, Matt Payne, Kai Allen, Michael Guest, Bridget Crosato, James Golding, Matt Mingay, and, of course, Molly Taylor.
As if that weren’t enough, the production is sprinkled with cameos from Ryan Williams, The Skid Factory, Turbo Yoda, Broc Feeney, Zach Bates, Ben ‘Woody’ Wood, and Riley Nauta. Prepare for an unforgettable experience!
