What has happened to cars these days. I remember the good old days when there were minimal electronics and every car had a carburettor. The below is based on my Astra J 1.4 turbo I understand why they have evolved like they have. But some things are really annoying. Plastic rocker covers? ffs man, yeah they cut costs but who wants plastic. They will never look as nice as a alloy cover Coil packs. Why are they just one big unit. Why not separate them so they can be bought individually and cheaper? Torx bolts, both male and female, everywhere! Why? Seriously, people will buy the sockets and then everyone will have the tools, just like everyone has regular sockets. Just stop it Non serviceable, expensive parts! Why the hell is there a tiny piece of rubber in my inlet manifold that is a check valve for the PCV system. The throttle body is attached to the inlet manifold and it all comes as one part. 600 pounds! ffs. I have had this modified so there is now a much better valve that is located externally and will easily last the life of the car - VX should have done this No space You often can't get to something without have to take a load of parts in the way out first What do you find annoying about new cars? |

lol. I would love to have one, if I was rich and had a big garage to store cars. Peaky Blinders nights at the pub would be great

When people race to a red light or anything in front of them. Slow down a little, you might not need to stop by the time you get there. There is a time for fast acceleration

And what's with people at roundabouts staring to the right looking at the car waiting to pull out. Look at all the cars and you might not have to wait for that car before you can go
