Advertisement shot in Woy Woy

Organisers of a national four-wheel-drive exhibition were at Woy Woy Wharf in December filming a television advertisement.

The show will be held at Sydney Exhibition Centre Darling Harbour from March 18 to 21.

The advertisement featured a silver Nissan Patrol, where a father, innocently fishing off Woy Woy wharf lands the biggest fish of all, a new 4WD.

The car will appear to emerge from Brisbane Water and shake water and seaweed off itself.

Event manager Ms Christie Kepars said that Woy Woy was chosen from a number of locations as it encapsulated the images that made up their campaign.

"Where the river meets the ocean, it was a good Australia backdrop," she said.

"It's just such a good location.

"There's all the pelicans and quite a lot of wildlife."

Curious locals watched on as crew threw buckets of water on the vehicle and the camera shook, the end result should resemble a dog shaking water off its back.

The National 4x4 show will run together with the Fishing and Outdoor Expo, displaying the latest equipment and accessories for outdoor enthusiasts.

The advertisement is expected to air mid-February.
