I can understand the added tech due to emissions management and some safety features but why do modern cars get stuffed full of basically unnecessary added tech and gadgets?
It increases cost, limits non dealer garage/diy work, causes distractions and ties you in to manufacturer/dealer use.
I cannot understand the interlinking of so many added systems where a non essential system causes you problems that make the car undriveable meaning recovery is needed.
It seems that manufacturers are playing a type of Top Trumps for having more added crap to their cars to entice buyers.
I don’t even miss not having power steering on my Mog. I am, after all, a fit, relatively young Mog owner, healthy ex rugby playing powerhouse who uses the Mog for arm workouts.
