    The glory days when a one eyed demon (car with one headlight and the working one aimed high) driven by a drunk ,comes out of the winter 02:00 hrs drizzle and sleet, on a single carriagway ,way over the speed limit, driving straddled on the white line and cleaves your door mirror off at a combined speed of plus 120mph. Very nice and historical.

    The USD prices for the Jag and Capri are straight conversions at the current exchange rate, not the advertised prices from back in the day. Ford proudly advertised an $1800 launch price for a stripper Pinto and the Capri would've been upscale of it so $2500 at least. Granted that would've been for a 2.0 with the GXL trim in all but name.

And regarding the carbon fiber, yeah, that is plastic aswell, carbon fiber reinforced epoxy resin to me is plastic, a phenomenal plastic, which I do appreciate since I actually learned how to work with it, but all it’s great pluses aside, hoe is a hoe and carbon fiber, even carbon-kevlar epoxy is still plastic, with bits in it... if you have chunks of corn in yer crap, you still call it crap...

    Dakota Johnson when exactly was economy screwed up? Just for you to know, i live in Germany, and was in first grade when East Germany collapsed. When the new economy bubble blossomed, i was in school and starting to study. When the financial crisis came, i was just two years into a job. There always has and will be high and low times in economy. I saw three currencies come and go and two states with a completely different economic order. So please spare your comment and do some research before writing on. So please enlighten us why "screwed up" economics have something to do with bad products from the car industry?

Interiors were incredibly lavish with button-tufted pillow-topped seats in crushed velour or leather, door panels were thickly and softly padded with full-length armrests and ornate door pulls. Roofs were padded and covered in patterned vinyl. And many cars were decent sized -about 18-19 feet long. And often almost 7 feet wide. Almost all modern cars are dinky little things, and they look like hell.

The smell of old leather and woodwork was wonderful! No moulded plastic in sight. Times were simpler. Having said that, for example, some older cars didn't have power steering, and the fuel efficiency compared to modern cars were dire. You could see your fuel gauge heading to zero very quickly indeed at 20-25mpg, among other things! Great video, made me chuckle, and it's all so true :)

The vw is not my only vehicles but none of them will die after my jetta. They will all die before it does. At the moment the odometer is a hair over 800,000 miles ( i live in the usa im not quite sure what that would be converted into kilometers for my neighbors over the Atlantic) any way over 800,000 miles over the years just basic maintenance repairs and still running strong at this rate i do see it easily living to see 1 million miles. I highly doubt with all of this electronic bullcrap in todays vehicles around the globe any of them will last that long.

    Safety on newer cars is very much improved, but there is something about old cars that just draws me in. I'm currently learning to drive (ish) and stepping into the old '99 Ibiza is so different from any new car. You get 3 pedals, a stick, and two gauges. Nothing is done for you except ABS. It's much more raw and immersive than having the car do everything for you. Add low maintenance costs and a handbrake that isn't limited to pushing a button. This and the Honda Concerto that my mom had are really, really enjoyable to drive.

    I'll drop in a few here. -Diversity, especially of engines. It used to be, there were a great variety of engines for a great variety of purposes. And within each type of engine, there were infinite variations. GMC's giant V6 engines (they used 351ci/5.8L and possibly larger in light trucks, 478ci/7.8L in medium trucks), the 215ci Buick/Oldsmobile/Pontiac (later Rover) V8, and the V12 BMWs of the 1980s and 1990s are infinitely more interesting to me than any number of 1.6L and 2.0L turbo fours. -Visually-appealing body styles like coupes and convertibles. And station wagons. Ugly chopped-off hatchbacks serve a practical purpose in Europe and Japan where space is at a premium, but to condemn the wide-open expanses of the US, Canada, and Australia to the same automotive fate is just cruel. -Cable-actuated throttle. -Engines you can see. I was at a car show recently where someone had a (most likely stock) Mercedes-Benz... CL600, I think it was? They had the hood up, but I don't know why they bothered; I just saw a vast expanse of stupid plastic. Apparently, there was a twin-turbo V12 hiding in there somewhere, but I never saw it. -Thin, simple steering wheels. First came the airbags to make the centers fat, then came the buttons, then the rims bulked up. Annoyingly, U.S. regulations forbid replacing an airbag-equipped steering wheel with an airbag-less racing wheel, not that everyone cares. -Unique car culture in different places. When I see someone who isn't Japanese call mountain pass racing "touge", it makes me want to scream. Unique car cultures do still survive but if you read too many car-culture blogs it starts to look like everywhere is getting overwritten by some kind of heavily Japan-based new world order of car culture. Similarly, seeing a stanced S15 referred to as "USDM-inspired" just hurts.

    Modern cars usally have smaller windows than old cars so they are more difficult to see out of. Today they make fragile cars you can´t work on yourself due to electronics, they don´t last and cost a fortune to get fixed. In the past they made solid cars that lasted a long time and was easy to work on yourself. And nothing removes your attention from the traffic more than having a computer screen in your car which you have to look at to operate. The old style knobs and levers you could operate without looking at them so you kept focus on the traffic. I stay with old cars for as long as possible.

Of course a reversing camera is standard, you can't see out of the rear window at all! Blindspots the size of your ex wife's arguments. The bumper on my old car has taken knocks that would have left craters in a modern car. The paint is thinner, door panels are thinner, glass is thinner unless you buy something expensive. And turning circle! Don't get me started on how a modern hatchback has a much larger circle than a thirty year old midsize sedan.

    Nigel Mansell What six lights are you fucking talking about. Remember the 1960s Chevrolet Impala had six taillights: image.superchevy.com/f/58814349+w640+h426+q80+re0+cr1+ar0+st0/1964-chevrolet-impala-ss-rear-view.jpg

    Thorbjørn Madsen at least they didnt blind you. I always get blinded by fucking Toyota LED taillights. And modern cars may be safe, untill one of the electronic systems die.

    Nine's And AK's Gaming Channel Whatever you say petrol-head! Also you don't even care if your mother died in a car crash, because i bet that she drive an old piece of shit. I do like old cars, but i wouldn't drive in one. I rather drive a modern front wheel drive car which is a Skoda Octavia.

    +Thorbjørn Madsen Try to stay on topic. Modern cars are obviously safer, no one is trying to argue that. We're talking specifically about headlights which on modern cars might be better for the driver but everyone else coming towards them gets dazzled. It might only be to a minor degree but it's still less safe than the old incandescent headlights.

    The cars featured there would do that as a bare minimum its not uncommon for them to do double that mileage, you can still see them being used as Taxis in some of the poorer regions in the mediterarian they are tough cars to kill just like Corollas.

    As an engineer: The old reliable cars are an statistical oddity, today's cars are more reliable in general. But you will only remember the ones that are still here and you don't see the ones that will keep working later until much later.

    Even the old ones which lasted a long time, like Mercedes, Volvos, etc., still tended to have lots of other issues, it's just that the main components were really sturdy.

    Tell you what i miss about old cars is the headlights in the late 80s and 90s. In the uk they had a feature when you turned them onto sidelights the dipped halogen beam would come on and dim to 20% of its power. A lot of people drove around towns at night with these lights selected and they looked really soothing and nice with a dark orange halogen tint to them. Think it was called dim-dip or dip-dim.
