Designed primarily for the US and Europe, where motorway journeys may require you to constantly negiociate toll booths - the idea is, with your money clipped on your key ring, its always to hand when you need it.

You do need a decent wadge of notes for it to work though This works better in the US with dollar bills etc improving the size of ones wadge

Really! How did you find that out? I just assumed it was for the knocking noise because well, it does stop most of the knocking in my car! Anyway, surely if you have toll booths you use coins not notes!

Depends how much the toll is - if you're talking €40, I wouldn't like to do it in coinage

Not sure how I know, just another bit of useless knowledge occupying my brain

The most expensive toll road I've ever been on was about £2! I never knew that you could pay that much as a road toll! I'll not be driving in Europe!

That's right folks, you heard it here first - a MINI2.com world exclusive!
'BGJ uses US dollar bills to improve the size of his wadge.'
Stay tuned to the General Discussion for further developments.
