I dont understand those based on electrons migrating across barriers betweeen dissimilar metals . And I do not want any sort of infotainment - if I want music then I sing to myself. laugh2 And sometimes the dog joins in!


The problem today is that any new modern car is gathered with electronic gadgets and much more we don't see under the bonnet... unless you buy a Japanese or a Korean basic model, you'll have plenty of these "silly" gadgets in the dashboard wink

Maybe looking at the second hand market you may still find some jewels without too much electronic and old school big blocks.

I'm thinking about some Volvos... V40 and V60 are quite good machines and generally reliable. But you can't expect a super performant engine hide

If you feel nostalgic of old school big British cars... remember my Range Rover Vogue SE is for sale ! laugh2

In that one the only electronic thing is the fuel injection rofl
