Lol :grin: :grin:
But I don't have the radio on either, never have & the emergency services have had issues with ghetto-blaster driver not hearing the sirens.
Also, in icy weather, I like to hear the car engine as it can give a good indication that the driving wheels are losing grip when the revs go up. Yes I know the car has a rev counter but it means I don't have to be looking at it. Lol. :grin:

I still can't really get used to the fact that the hybrid Mondeo has neither a rev counter, nor a temperature gauge. It's the first car that I ever driven, never mind owned, without a temperature gauge, and I can't remember the last time I had a car without a rev counter.

No music in the car unless it's for a reason. Too distracting, whereas Radio 4 is an excellent companion.
