Default The sound of the V8?

Hmmmmm, you must have the go-faster, after-market, boy-racer exhaust system. The real one emits a mere zephyr of continuous gas from its titchy small-bore pipe with no discernable, loping, V8 beat at all and is several tens of dB down on the horrendous fan roar.

Even with the LR/Ballard viscous fan modification the V8 beat is still largely overshadowed by the now audible and very prominent purring of Trak-Grips on tarmac.
