…Which turned out to be not a prank at all!

BMW New Zealand need to take a bow this week after a genius double bluff April Fools’ prank.

The car manufacturer ran an ad in a newspaper in New Zealand which read: “April Fools Day Special. Be the first person to bring your car, along with this coupon, into the BMW Newmarket dealership this morning, ask for Tom and we’ll swap your old car – whatever it is – for a brand new BMW.”

Surely nobody would take it seriously? And if they did, BMW were probably going to laugh in their faces right?

Wrong…

Here’s what actually happened when Tiaana Marsh from Auckland went to the dealership.
