Re: Noisy cars
The MOT rules say that the exhaust noise from the vehicle must not be unreasonably above the noise level normally expected from a similar vehicle with a standard silencer in average condition. There's no actual limit in terms of decibel levels, it's up to the MOT tester to decide what is unreasonable.Re: Noisy cars
I think that the attitude of that arsehole Clarkson and others like him who revel in the `throaty` noises pumped out of the exhaust pipes of sporty cars have created the problem. It's the same mentality of those young morons skittling up and down roads on their weedy and under-powered 2-stroke mopeds/scooters who think it's fun to rev the arse off their machines in a low gear just to hear the noise it makes and in some instances, drill small holes in the exhaust to make them sound more powerful than they actually are.Re: Noisy cars
