Just taken delivery of my new 1.2 QQ Premium and am generally very pleased with it. However, in finding my way around the controls etc I was surprised how feeble the horn was, especially in motorway conditions.Now I very rarely use the horn and consider it a warning instrument in certain situations and I would have thought a more strident horn would be more fitting, especially for a fairly large vehicle.Is it possible to upgrade the standard horn fairly easily ?Cheers.Tansy

Thanks to the Referendum I can't tell who's telling the truth or being a Joker anymore!

I'm off to Chiswick now. Will going through Amesham, Beaconsfield, along M40, M25, M4. Desperately looking for opportunities to blast horn at traffic rule contravenors. Or I might just beep a "hello" to any other 2014QQ drivers.
