My favourite cars to own were made between 2003 to 2011. They’re so peaceful to drive compared to modern cars that constantly fucking screech and ding at you just for starting the damn thing.
Same here, mine is 2006 and already quite computerized for my taste.
But recently I did a trip in a 2020s car and it was … disconcerting. First of all it was automatic which I’m not used to. Unable to get it in gear, the 9yo boy in the backseat said: look at the screen, it’s telling you what to do!. He was right. Even so the car would not let me back into a patch of high grass, kept blocking the wheels. Jarringly.
