F88k knows what people are doing to thier cars if they consider them unreliable, I did 38,400 miles in 2 years in mine, so does get used a lot, I've done 200 between monday and now.
I have never had a breakdown, and fail to how having MUCH more goodies on a modern car makes them more reliable, on balance there is more potential to go wrong as there is more to go wrong, despite being used originally in the days or wooden wheels the cossie doesn't spin shells and eat engines unlike scoobs, modern driving is so detached from the car, might as well be on the x box at least you get feedback there, just find most modern cars boring, and looking at reliability charts is interesting, doesn't seem there is that much advance.
Look at the veryon v the macci f1, so many years between the designs, massively different technologies and expense for what 5-6mph, what a joke, is that the best can be done in all those years ?
