I don't get your point.

VW probably creates a lot of the marketing materials centrally, for all countries.
Why would they have different ad campaigns and pictures for every single country ?

Of course they do, just check the plate numbers

But still.. other brands don't suffer such failures on 'home' brochures

The image displacement is probably to account for the fold in the printed brochures.

Uhm, yeah, I doubt it. The plates are most likely photoshopped.

Tetenal is right. They just put the PDF for print online. That would qualify for fail.

Spain doesn't have enough money to upgrade from the trial version of Photoshop Express.
