    I wish they would make like generic vehicles. Like, basic shit. Give me that nokia brick vehicle that I can drive forever and is dead simple to work on.

        Too bad it’s gotten huge like every other car. I had an '86 Corolla and it was a good 25% smaller than the Corolla now. It was a really great car though.

          Miatas are not much bigger.

          I’m 100% with you though. Even mini coopers are bigger than sedans used to be.

          Unfortunately most of those are not dead simple to work on.

          I didn’t know that it beat out the Beetle. Neat!

      Soviets did that, they had a few types of vehicles that were cheap to make and that ran forever. some likely still running now. Really great stuff. ( I’m not a tankie I just like Soviet history.)

      You mean the one without a crumple zone that is deadly to any pedestrian?

      I rather want one that is safe for humans than for the car itself.
