Its a personal opinion of what is annoying, and I accept  some may  be more sensitive to certain tones etc. But  I find it discreate, and no problem at all.    So does Mrs LV , who can hear a fridge being opened or a sneaky sweet  being unwrapped from anywhere in the house  :-[ ;D    No reason IMO to put off updating your car, or stopping driving. 

I have found it particularly  helpful with the increasingly common  20 mph limits. On roads that really dont justify  a 20 mph limit I find I naturally drive at 23 mph unless reminded.   :-[   On roads that really need the 20 mph limit I often drive slower than that anyway . If I chose to  occasionally exceed the limit( by a couple of mph  ;)  its no big deal with the car
  I will fix that dripping tap.  No need to keep reminding me every 3 months.

In our other car, a 2024 Aygo X, we have this problem.  Not on the Crosstar as it is 2021 car. 

The Toyota speed bongs were driving me mad, found it way too distracting.  And I stick to speed limits. 

But in situation where you start to speed up just before the end of the 30 zone (say) the bloody bongs would start!  I had to totally clear the 30 zone before speeding up to stop the bongs happening.  As I was taught to speed up into a higher speed zone slightly before the new speed limit sign by my driving instructor years ago, that's what ive always done, without taking the piss.  The rest of the time, I am absolutely within the speed limits.  Also too, had the other issue mentioned when I set my cruise control to 31 to take account of the speedo underread, and the bongs would go off.  Easily remedied.

However I now go the route of turning off the Road Sign Speed Recognition system on every drive, which take me seconds, and stops the bonging.

I really hope this issue doesn't get worse with increasing legislation.  Although I am totally in favour of measures to warn speeding drivers generally.

Dukes of Hazzard horns (30 quid on amazon) can just fit into a Jazz near the window washer reservoir, they will silence the bongs and pretty much every other noise known to man apart from a Saturn Five rocket and they don't make them rockets anymore.

Loving the way you say you drive to speed limits, but then say you exceed the speed limit before the higher sign applies!  Do that on an IAM or RoSPA ADA test and you'll quickly discover that your driving instructor was wrong.  :)
