All part of the charm of a big V8.  As has been said, underground car parks are the best (worst?) Side pipes are best as the pressure pulse is aimed directly at the cars along side you. Many car alarms are pressure change sensitive..... The only 'design flaw' with an Aero is that the side pipes direct much of the pressure wave underneath the adjacent cars. What you need is a V8 LR Defender on side pipes. The height is perfect... Allegedly

Not just that Stuart - I have a perfect oval shape red brand mark on my right calf. Nothing like a red hot side exhaust to wipe the smile off your face as you try to get out of an Aero.

Driving on a fairly wide street at 30ish mph with parked cars on one side - put a few revs on and it set a car alarm off for some reason.
Is that normal?
No. Not if your exhaust meets the legal 90db limit.

No. Not if your exhaust meets the legal 90db limit. Tarka is rated, on the V5, as 86db, no idea how that is measured. At Castle Combe it was 88db at 4000rpm on their tester. So legal. At 6000 rpm and with almost full throttle it is over 100db.

Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
