Eight years ago I got my first car with power steering. It felt a bit vague compared to the un-powered Pug it replaced but the ease of manoeuvring was welcome. I soon got used to it and didn't give it much thought again until yesterday.
I'm a bit of a hoarder, and the old Pug was put in a lock-up garage where it stayed un-loved and un-used.
Yesterday I had to drive it out of the garage and manoeuvre it onto a transporter. I couldn't believe how much effort was involved. I'm not sure I could go back to a car like it now.
So could you live without power steering?
