Airsupport,
That last statement of yours is without doubt the biggest load of rubbish I have EVER heard on PPrune, and that my friend is quite a big accolade.
So the development of ABS, Dynamic Stability Control/Airbags/Electronic Brake Distribution, Crumple zones, Side intrusion bars etc etc etc(could list a myriad of things here) is not improving SAFETY in your eyes??
Give me a break mate.
Stay with your HX Premier with RTS and 4 on the Floor mate. Just don't drive too close to me on a greasy,slippery road at night with your sealed beam headlights.
