<font size="-1"><font face="Arial">Hello folks,<br>
<br>
If you really want boring how about the current offerings of car
radios. I put a one into my MGB GT V8 and got a Pioneer because
it had a remote USB at the end of a cable so I can put the flash
drive in my glove box. I only listen to 91.5FM and 99.1 FM
because they have NO adverts (CBC). When I drove out with my
newly installed radio I found to my horror that because these
stations had a weak signal <i>I could not get them! </i>But
when I got back to the car radio install company they could not
understand my problem pointing out that I now had Spotify,
Pandora, Sirius, Bluetooth, ability to use my cell phone into
the radio (WHY???), have different colours for the display,
etc, etc,etc. There was only ONE page in the 33 page manual
devoted to radio !!!!!!! So my MGB is now a mobile
communication centre with a *iss poor radio. But to end this
all, I bought a cheap portable for my garage (listen to non
commercial stations of course) and for fun tried it in my MGB -
it worked perfectly !!!!!!<br>

<div><font size="2">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.</font></div>

you (didn't) ask, would I own cars like that?
Because they're quirky and fun. So further to the
point; Valuable by its very nature is a subjective
term. Its dynamic, and I love dynamic systems.</div>
