In the last few weeks have seen Mercs , Volvos , Pugs , Audis on recovery trucks , or stranded on M25/A14 , these people are always busy , modern cars are subject to lots of problems i'm afraid , don't kid ypurself !
I suspect that modern cars are more reliable than those of 20 years ago. The BIG difference is, I suspect, that the owner cannot do anything to fix the problem at the roadside. A laptop and specialist knowledge is essential for even trivial issues.
For more an more cars even a flat tyre results in a recovery call out: this is, in my view, nuts! The reason given by the dealer is that this saves weight: I don't believe it.
My old CLC has a spare, another reason to keep it!
Thoughts?
