Anyone seen the latest You Tube from Harry - the electrified BMW 5 series. Its like a fairground ride for children with the dash changing colours, driving modes by driver mood, huge weight, absolutely ridiculous price and miniscule range. Is this the future we want I ask myself.

Giver the chance to design my own car, I pondered what gadgets I would install. My conclusion was:

air con
manual box
fuel injection and electronic ignition
memory seats - swmbo being 1 foot shorter than me
cruise control
abs
full wishbone suspension

And thats it. I dont want engine modes. I dont want menus and screens, I dont want coloured interior lights or lane assist, I dont want infotainment,

In fact I guess what I want is a new car from the 1990s.

How about you?
