"You're So Exhausting" - Blue Eyed Soul, 2007

This car is often parked in the lot behind our office. What was the owner thinking when he/she made this ugly modification to such a beautiful car?

How horrible! What purpose do they serve?

Could they be "exhaust silencers" to reduce noise pollution? They sure do nothing to enhance the beauty of the car.

Yes, they are Exhaust Silencers, Bronx Boy. But the car already comes fitted with a perfectly good set of them that fit well with the car's looks. This "show-off" has decided that he/she needs to tell the world that they have arrived by creating a large noise. They will be illegal, of course.

Tks. Milky Bar Girl - but then they are the complete opposite of exhaust silencers aren't they?

BB> They are silencers BUT they emit far more sound than is permitted by UK legislation. So to answer your question... Yes & No. And I am a boy.
Apologies to Janet for hosting our debate here.

You two just talk away - too bad you don't know each other for real!

I'm thoroughly enjoying your "conversation"!

Apologies Accepted. I think we are done now Janet.

What a great post, I actually found it very thought provoking, thanks Exhaust Silencers
