I'm waiting to catch up with my DiL, then I'll update the thread regarding water ingress into a Toyota Yaris.

You have a point though, if something goes wrong with a modern car, there's not usually much that the ordinary punter can do about it other than 'take it in'.

Not much you can do with a modern car.Tyres,check winscreen washer and oil level.

Regular servicing and a computer needed.

They're far more reliable. That's why you don't see the AA man on his motorbike & sidecar saluting you at the side of the road ! In the old days any mechanic working on your car would be wearing a boiler suit and carrying a spanner & an 'ammer. Nowadays its a tie & a laptop !
