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

Good Horns.
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

I have bought a soundproofing kit, and some extra Dodomat 6mm sheets to soundproof my 2005-build CDTi - I agree that the late cars are much less refined than the early PPD cars.
I'll try to put some feedback on the forum, once I can find time to fit the kit. Pete |
