Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:

So - is it illegal to use a hand-held CB mic whilst driving like it is a mobile? Dave I have it from Dogrough of Manchester Minis, who is a member of the local constabulary, that hand held CB mic is not ilegal to use as it can only transmit or receive , not both together. The police can however get you with other laws such as not in full control of the vehicle. I will also tell you that OFCOM dropped the CB licencing, if you ever bothered to register in the first place
