   Thanks.  Good to know.  AFAIC it's good that some are like that.

   I'm sure that's it, but I don't care what they want.  It doesn't   
   distract me anyhow.  Maybe it was a setting for rental cars and the same   
   car non-rental wouldn't do that, buit they don't sell Citroens in the US   
   so I can't go check.   
      
   It's one more thing I'll have to remember to check when buying a car.

   If they only turned the volume down, that would be good enough.
