Sound proofing

Sound proofing on our cars must be quite good. From inside the car I thought I only had one horn, in fact having had the bumper off I have two and both work. One is high tone and the other low tone

maybe you only have high tone hearing

Or your low tone ears are being muffled by your socks.

Don't worry.....that only matters if you're pipping another 75 owner......and we wouldn't want to do that would we.

On Sunday I was out in the 75, I saw what looked like a young girl carrying a bag of bits and bobs, as she was walking a card fell out. It doesn't take Einstein to spot the shape of a greetings card in a Red envelope. As I was very close I hit the horns, the poor girl jumped. I looked in the mirror and she'd turned around and seen the dropped card, I'm sure I gave her a fright but she got back her card, It may have been hers and filled with money or a gift. The 75 Horns saved me having to stop, they are a great sound.

Our cars are quiet, hmm, apparently my son reckons the engine is loud in my CDTI. The problem for me is I wear a hearing aid, this really does amplify sounds inside the cabin so I don't know if what he says is correct or not
