My hopes were raised….only to be dashed! Hopefully there will be enough complaints from drivers that these things may be more controllable in the future, a bit like how buttons are starting to make a comeback as very few people like the ‘touchscreen for everything’ approach, as it’s so distracting (as the bings and bings are). What I would give to have some of my old cars back (Ford Granada Scorpio Executive, Ford Scorpio Cosworth, Rover Vitesse, BMW 530D etc). I really enjoyed driving those cars. Not any more
Sadly those days are gone and it’s only going to get worse as time goes on.
Having the Rover 75 recently, but briefly, only served to remind me of days not so long ago, where driving was an upmost pleasure, with only the sound of the V6 heart beating in the backround, not interupted by fecking bing this and fecking bong that. Not that the 220d is much different in reality compred to that of today!
