Bong if I put a curry on the passenger seat, bong if I open the door with the key in the ignition, bong if I take the key out with the light on. Used to drive me nuts. So far, silence with the Defender. Nice to have a vehicle that just goes when you tell it to, rather than trying to run your life for you. 
The good lady and I were discussing this in the Defender last night. I pointed out that you don't even have a light come on to tell you your seat belt isn't fastened, let alone an annoying bong. Since they haven't bothered with any crash protection it's hardly surprising that Land Rover don't nanny the driver with lights and noises. Looks like we will have to take responsibility for our own actions - imagine that in this day and age!
I agree with Tarrel - it's very refreshing. |
