Years ago in the RAAF, squadron execs (well at least the CO, i.e. RAF OC) had a Holden car/station wagon for his personal use. But the vehicle came from the factory with a standard car radio fitted.

Now humble air force employees were not entitled to a car radio in a vehicle, so the factory was contracted to remove them.

I believe the cost of removal was $300 per vehicle! Who writes these contracts!! ...and now, back to the Nimrod toaster...
