I don't think you'd be able to get any new non-computerized car at all today. Emission control makes computerization an absolute requirement. That's why choice

I don't think you'd be able to get any new non-computerized car at all today. Emission control makes computerization an absolute requirement. That's why choice in cars for people who feel the way I do is limited to old cars from pre-90s. Suits me fine. Servo power steering is acceptable, though my present car (1993 Subaru stationwaggon) has direct steering, and I prefer that.

Car manufacturers have made giant leaps in driver safety though (going by NCAP star ratings and the like). Drivers can now walk away from what once would have been a fatal crash - are you comfortable forgoing all those advancements?

Does the safety improvements in cars introduced since 1993 designed to protect you from collisions with other vehicles, outweigh the risk of a computer fault ?
