EXTREME ROLLING SOUND SYSTEM
Hi neighbours,
I live up on Glenfield hill looking down on Birkdale and Beach haven area.
Now recently from time to time I have heard unbelievably load busts of music coming up from Birkdale and Beach haven
At the time I was thinking maybe it’s a sound crew testing their gear for the next AC/DC or Metallica gig
The busts of music would only ever last a few seconds at a time
“So anyway’s” last evening I was riding back from Takapuna on my motorbike when I was hit by a sonic boom of sound waves which nearly threw me off the bike
This noise came from a car in the lane beside me, I think this car started out as maybe a 2006 Mazda 3 sport hatch before it was highly modified
It looks like the rear seat and luggage area in the car has been removed to make way for a huge speaker system
I’m thinking the sound system can only be used for a few seconds at a time because of the huge drain on the cars battery
The car has been repainted in a nondescript colour similar to car in photo
Normally I’d note down the plate number of a car in question “but this time I was in shock”
I would love to know more about this car and driver if you see (and hear) it around
