Default SMG spoils driving pleasure

After reading lots of crap about SMG, & the forthcoming flappy paddles on the next Clio & GT3 spoiling the pleasure of driving I would like to say to them all.

BRING BACK

Drum brakes
Crash gear boxes
Unassisted power steering
Cross ply tyres
No seat belts
Etc

Starting handles, Leaf Springs and Wire wheels.
Aye lad them were th'days when you could ave couple e pints of Boddy's, 10 Woodbine and still have change from a shilling

'Tempus Fugit' time does not stand still, you either embrace the new tech and all that may offer (good, bad or indifferent) or return to the cave

Yeah, but some new tech is shite though, isn't it?!

Although think how much louder the CSL could have been if they'd amplified the sound through the radio. Maybe not with a Business CD mind

Endless possibilities, the grating of unsynchronised gears, pinking engine, hissing radio. Just select your experience via i drive.
