Cant i just get a 12 bore and shoot the dash? a bit extreme i know but she really does my head in, especially if i stall the car and have to re start in a hurry, it,s as if she,s mocking me for being a rubbish driver!!! Turning her down would be allmost as good as killing her though!!!

Buy a licence? its only about £30, i was upset when it broke on my Xantia and miss it on my Phase II C5 as it has some newer system thats not as good, its a handy system saved me quite a few times from sitting in traffic on motorway journeys in the past.

You can buy a 12 month licence. These cost around £35. I have traffic master on my car and it is an absolute life saver. Manytimes ive avoided traffic on the way to work by taking a different route due to traffic to which she told me about. Its really ideal on motorway too.... Just get a licence you wont regret it :-)

The trouble with the Trafficmaster fitted to the car it only tells you about a problem on a motorway a maximum of two junctions away from the problem and more often than not only comes to life after you have joined the motorway and are now stuck in the queue :roll:

Far better is the Trafficmaster app on my iPhone as that gives a map of all delays around the country that you can view prior to starting the journey and it only costs £1.69 for life.

It shows jams along the roads and how fast traffic is moving through them, and it is free.

Yes but the Trafficmaster app gives more detail in the speed traffic is flowing.

I had Trafficmaster and my satnav on at the same time but the girls got into an awful cat fight. :-D

Sounds a bit like when I upgraded Girlfriend 1.0 to Wife 1.0 - and then subsequently tried to install Girlfriend 2.0 before uninstalling Wife 1.0. :shock:

I think she's topped herself! Since changing the starter motor I've not heard a peep out of her.

And, the press once and press and hold DOES adjust the volume so if she does pipe up I can hardly hear her.

The Trafficmaster Oracle service is being discontinued from June, so Ms Trafficmaster will soon be redundant.
