Toot toot.....
« on: 21 October 2008, 15:28 »
Ahhhh beep beep  :laugh:

No seriously though. Why doesn't my horn work when my engine is turned off??

Is this normal? I only noticed yesterday when waiting silently (engine off) and tried to beep me horn at some nice looking men and it didn't bloody work. Most frustrating.
We'r like marmite. Mmmmm, i love marmite :D

Yup - cars are now not meant to be able to sound the horn with the ignition off.

You can try fiddling with my horn if you like . . . .

OK, OK, taxi has arrived!  :evil:

BTW, nice alloys!  :wink:  :smiley:
