Amazing how different road horns are from one car to another.

Both my previous cars have been Fords, and both had good, loud, non-embarrassing horns. Not often used, but on those few occasions I did so, never the sort of thing to make you crouch down in your seat, red faced.

But this Jazz, well. I know its reliable pensioner transport, but did they have to make the horn so weak and wimpy? Coming out of a petrol station yesterday on the brow of a hill a car was approaching from the right. Its hard to judge speed at that location because vehicles come into view quite late around a blind corner, but I reckoned I had plenty of time to turn right across his path before he got to me. He was going faster than I thought and although there was never any chance of a collision he blew his horn, nice and loud, not embarrassing. I blew back, partly in reluctant apology but also to show him that I had one. A horn, that is. Well, the noise my car made can only be described as "neeeeee". I can't even justify using caps to describe the sound because the device simply doesn't warrant it. A child's toy, that's what it sounded like.

In the opinion of the forum's electrical and technical whizzes, is there any technical consideration that might prevent me changing this toy horn for a real one?
