Just my observations. The amount of cars/traffic on the roads around here has gone up exponentially in the past few years. Driving an older slower vehicle around has become a nightmare to endure, rather than being a enjoyable outing.

Had a fatality just down the road here a few months back , a windy narrow rural road and a 4X4 and inexperienced drivers.

I drove a series 1 Land Rover into the nearest large town twice, I was a nervous wreck battling huge trucks and fast cars on a quiet 'back road'. The Rover now sits unused.
Buy a white scout car... the other road users will steer clear.
