The G-O-G-G-O man has a green dart.

That guy also used to do the, "Is Don, Is Good!" commercials if my mind serves me correctly.

Shannon's have only one. There are only four in the country. And the one in the ad does not belong to Tommy Dorset the actor, it is owned by Shannon's

Sure there's only four? Shannons have a green one, someone else mentioned they had a red one, and my old neighbour had a light blue one (maybe gone by now and repainted red or green???)

The guy on the ad has a Goggomobile SEDAN, hence why he says "NOT THE DART". We had a DART in the shed when I was a kid and I remember my Dad put it on the roof of a real car and took it to the tip, no regrets either. In my developing mind I thought it was an amphibious car/boat whatever.

The Goggomobil originally came from Germany, however the Dart was designed in Australia (& built here). There were approx 700 built
