Default Awful vibration/noise

I have been hearing an awful noise/vibration in my car for the last few days... this morning I found the culprit...

Image quality sucks since I only had my phone with me...



Let's zoom in...



Moral of the story... when you have a noise, first remove all toys...

It was amazing the noise/vibration from this toy!! Sounded like something was seriously wrong with the car...

I would check for any obstruction in the intakes of one of the jet engines. Probably a few Cheerios.

There wouldn't be much left if I removed all toys...

I just found it funny and decided to post it. Just like the time the car made another weird noise and smelled like it was burning... turned out to be a nut shell stuck in one of the rear brake calipers... paranoid? Who said that???

Thats reminds me of the time when I was driving my mercedes down a very quiet country lane in the middle of the night,I started to hear voices which I tried to ignore..ok it was getting late and I was tired but the voices wouldnt go away.I was starting to get a bit freaked out by this and got home quickly.When I stopped the car in the drive I decided to look around the inside of the car and there it was a kiddys Mcdonalds toy that my son had left after the school run.
It must have activated when I went over a bump or something......
