I think that modern cars can dull your driving spidey senses. I had a 1966 MG Midget when I was 19 (LOOONNGG time ago now!) and you needed psychic abilities to drive that properly!

I have a 2015 Jaguar XF and it has made me lose my spacial awareness when parking a car that doesn't have sensors and a camera! Plus when you are in it it's so easy to forget to be 100% alert all the time.

Personally I prefer driving older cars, because you actually have to have some driving skill to drive them!
