As I was getting the Clio to move around for the various photos I couldn’t help but be amazed by how much noise this car actually makes, the after market exhaust it has been fitted with makes it sound extremely aggresive. So I wanted to share with you what it …
Some Stuffs I experienced in my short 3 fully packed business visit to Bangalore, India. Interesting place, culture, smells and sounds. -Pollution (both air and noise) is a problem here…The noise is actually becoming music to my ear and a part of the culture. Vehicles honk to warn each other …
