Krzys Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 They all look the same, share engines and use the same chassis! New cars are just bland and uniqueness is disappearing! Plus a throttle cable is far nicer than drive-by-wire! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comedywizard Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Definately, as a kid I used to know all the cars by shape and even sound, but now quite often I have to 2nd guess or see the badge to be certain what it is, too much badge engineering. My dad used to say he could tell the old BMC cars coming up the street Riley / Wolseley just by the engine note or gearbox whine! (so did I with my old Mini or Mk1 Fiesta) Gone are the good old days (and I'm only 30!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIKH25 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Everything is now built down to a price and the engines are so restricted because fuel economy and emissions are the most important things to sell new cars now. Although saying that, GT86 What f**k me off the most is too many electric sensors etc bring back the twin carbs lolI do love the sound of a pair of side draught webers.
