I don't know what to say about this. Is it tacky, kind of funny, interesting or all of the above. To a Jaguar owner it is funny. To other people you may get some weird looks...

Says "It is LOUD", but would it be loud ENOUGH?

DGL did you ever hear the air horns on an Italian car. They took the masculinity out of the drivers sail , hahahahaha. Just thought this was funny but not worth buying.

Well, I kinda agree with DGL...I put it in the same category as the "cat-call" whistle when a curvaceous lady strolls by....Perhaps, this could get their attention with less obnoxious intentions?
I'll add, I still like the two-tone sounds of the horns of my 65 Mustang and the E-type.

I agree with all of the above - it got a good chuckle out of me. It might be nice for use when a jaywalker pops out in front of you. Or if somebody cuts you off.

Somebody has to buy this. I'll chip in $10 if you install them and get some videos in traffic (jaguar only).

It would be funny and interesting to use it remotely when someone is up close admiring the car. This way you know you already have interest and the person appreciates a well designed car--you're almost guaranteed to put a smile on their face.
