Car chimes

I have just been aurally assaulted by a Hyundai. You know, the noise that tells you that you have just turned off the ignition but the thing is still in reverse. Well bugger me, I almost panicked, the noise was so offensive.

There goes any Korean auto purchases.

My BMW sounds like a U-boat about to dive. It must be some sort of German joke. Or not.

I like the soft chimes that the Japanese propagate. But I wonder why they chime inside the car when you reverse? Surely it’s others (on the pavement) that have no idea that you are reversing.

I must take note as to what the Americans do when I am next over there.

The ideal situation is as per my Subaru where I have managed to fuck the chimes altogether. Sweet silence. I may just have to keep that car forever.
