Anyone else taking them down and if so what channel are you likely to use.

Beyond the standard quips from classic movies like Convoy and Smokey and the Bandit I'm not sure what the etiquette is...

interesting idea.. Have one I use for paragliding, will see if I can find it and bring it along..

If I get things sorted, I'll text you and let you know when I hit the other side..

WE found that whatever channel you go on there is already someone there,

which makes it even more fun!

(Of course if you have bling 4billion channels radios then you'll be OK anyway).

We found the etiquette is not to slag of the BMW driver in front only to find he has a radio too!
Was funny though.

yep, will have radio. Hadn't thought about what channel yet - why doesn't someone suggest a channel and we'll tune in to that...

Anything between 1 and 8 would be good!

6 isnt too reliable so I guess it will have to be 8


(yeah yeah, just kidding, I know they are all the same)

The S needs some fettling and I've only just done an airfield day in it too - and there is the minor issue of an MOT...

It currently only blows hot air towards the driver, not upwards or cold, so could be a little unpleasent for a 500 mile drive - need some dash-out work come winter methinks...

The shopping trolley does have climate control and a beer cooler in the boot though
