If it were true then model T ford would have outlasted the current models or be the model of choice!!In fact the Germans have been able to make all these moving parts work so harmoniously has also been due to the fact that they are able to use better material for all their internal component. The advancement of the metalogy has significantly improved leaps and bound over the last few years. Moreover with the introduction of sensors and more intelligent ecu, the engine is force to work within a set parameters which would ultimately prolong the life of the engine unless you are one of those dude that gets Lim Ah Kow mechanic to fiddle with it at midnight at One Utama!! ha ha!!( I read that somewhere in this forum)In fact I do actually luv the petrol cars especially NA but sometimes one has just to move with time</blockquote>
