          • When you drive the modern work car and can't work out how to adjust the mirrors (and then your passenger asks 'why is the back window down?' cos all the buttons are confusing and you've opened all of the windows instead of moving the mirrors). Gotta love the simplicity of old cars.

            • ...when you press the demister switch and it falls in to the dash.

              ...when you have to stop the car and read the manual to work out how to use the heater controls to demist the front windscreen and it still doesn't work properly!
