>> With you there.  One of the things I hate about modern cars is that they are so 'competent' aka boring.  Our daughter had a new MINI and if it hadn't been for the scenery going past the window I wouldn't have known we were moving.  I blame the manufacturers for reducing the driving experience to that of sitting on a sofa watching TV, and of drivers paying the same amount of attention to their driving.  Time and time again car shows where they have any number of modern exotics the presenters occasionally get into a classic and rave about the experience.  One of the things that surprised me with the ZS180 on a test-drive at launch in 2001 was just how involving it was.  It'll have to go one day, and I'll be sorry when that happens.
