That's right Trev. My Dad once did exactly that in his Jaguar. Floored it away from the traffic lights and shot backwards into a builder's lorry.

No. All JDM SVXs have the internal beeper. I've never seen one with an external beeper. I want one of those mirrors for my Legacy Estate, but I can't see any easy way to fit one. Maybe I'll get one of those radar sensors instead.
