What town is used in that Standard Bank ad?

[Rouxenator]

This has been bugging me for a while now. There is a Standard Bank ad that start off with "Here is a town" and then it features all the people in the town like the chick that got a bakery business going and the Willemse moving into their new house and some other girl on her way to varsity.

What town was this shot in? I though Ceres but soon realised its not, too little mountains around it.

LOL, looks like a nice town.. Everyone seems so happy. Even the chick in her first car

Montague maybe?

 

[Mr_Bee]

Googling, It looks like it may be Orania.

7de laan side street?

Trollollolloll... I am not convinced that the Willemses would stay in Orania. Quaint little town in the ad, but it annoys me endlessly, especially in the cinema.

 

[Rouxenator]

Yes, the cinema one is longer. That town is not Orania and personally I think its a little too flat to be Montague.

 

[Superjakes]

I was thinking Colesberg

 

[jxharding]

i want to know too!!!

I laugh every time I see that ad because I remember Mr. Willemse from my days at UCT. That guy and his girl used to sit and make out all day on the statue at the bottom of Jammie steps.
