Talking The Wagon Trim Rattle Philharmonic.

My Classic wagon is a symphony. Depending on the temperature, road surface, revs, road speed or number of occupants, the various members of the orchestra come into play.

At a steady forty in fifth, the oboe leads the melody with a harsh 'A' from the rear nearside door trim. A subtle counterpoint can sometimes be heard from the offside loadspace trim panel with its basso profundo buzz. On a sunny day, a sweet, intermittent whine begins as the components of the dashboard heat up and come into contact, thus sharing with me the fruits of their sympathetic resonance.. Going over a gently undulating surface a faint pizzicato squeak can sometimes be heard from the passenger seat, punctuating the piece with a pleasant syncopation of rhythm.


Utterly captivating. Makes you wonder why people spend so much money on expensive stereo systems, doesn't it?

Who needs ICE, when your occupants could enjoy a Previnesque game by pointing towards the source of the sound in anticipation of the next noise ?

I had two cars before this one, both with the same fault; a rattling indicator stalk. This one had it too, until I started wearing a different watch.

I used to get a loud knocking from the rear of the car, then I remembered I'd kidnapped someone a week earlier.

BP.....following a particularly fine Easter concert in Wakefield Cathedral many moons ago I was described as being "basso profundo" by the Wakefield Express.

Does this mean I qualify to become part of your Wagon's trim? I could start behind the rear seat until you are happy I could cope with a more elevated position.

PS My range is from bottom C (on a sober day) to F above middle C.
