Music in your Midas?

I was wondering what people listen to when they drive their Midii (Midas's - whatever).
Do folk have the radio on, in which case, music or talk?
If a CD playing, what style?
I find that if I'm on a utilitarian trip to a place of work etc I tend to listen to Radio 4. But if the sun's shining or I'm just feeling in a good mood, it's jazz or classical. In summer with the lid off I might even try to look a bit too trendy and have Radio 1 on!
So what do you listen to when driving (apart from that funny little sound that wasn't there last time you drove her, could be a wheel bearing, or maybe one of the drop gears....)?

In the convertible apart from the rattle and vibration of my things to fix list getting longer as I drive...a bit of maintenance would help that if I'm honest...I listen to radio 2 on the way to work and a CD or the ipod on the way home or if I'm trekking out. iPod integration was one of the best things I've added to the stereo it's great for a long journey and doesn't have the condensation problems I had with the previous CD changer.
I have a similar setup for the bronze (good excuse to upgrade the stereo in the Range Rover) which I'll fit as I tiday up the trim and wiring.
Cheers,
Mike

as someone who drives his midas daily to do the school run with straight cut transfer gears I listen to rather loud classical music. or if in an upbeat mode, house music with the base turned up lol. much to the dismay of my daughter too

Mainly my collection of Captain Beefheart CDs. I'm told this accounts for some, if not all, of my personality problems...

I've got a six disc changer tucked away in the boot of the convertible.
Music tastes? An oxymoron in my case according to the kids. Anything from a spot of AC/DC, Metallica etc to Eminem with a bit of Bon Jovi in the middle. On bumpy roads I try to be serious and listen to Radio 4.

Just discovered Gold on the DAB radio (not in the Midas)! Good for us wrinkly racers!
