I don't want a luxury car and I don't want a very basic car. I want something that exactly replicates the functionality of my 24-year-old Range Rover. No laser-eye-surgery-bright screens, no touch panels, no always-connected-phones-home telematics, just four big squashy seats, a really loud stereo, and the capability to be just as happy flat out on the motorway as climbing up a trackless mountain, pulling a 3.5 tonne trailer.
I don't give the tiniest amount of a shit about having the 0-60 time of a bomb going off. I never ever need to accelerate from a standstill to 60mph as fast as possible, and I can't imagine a situation outside of drag racing where I'd need to. I don't feel much of a need to ask Alexa to turn on the windscreen wipers. If you want to travel but not actually touch controls, take the train - a train ticket is far more of a Veblen good, ideal for a flash git.
