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 ?
Servo power steering is acceptable, though my present car (1993 Subaru stationwaggon) has direct steering, and I prefer that.
