And the charm of having almost no electronics[1] on the car control is that if something is wrong, you will know it by the sounds it makes, and you will have a lot of times to fix it before it&amp;#x27;s completely toast. I have heard of horror stories about newer cars with electric ABS accumulator that stopped working on the high way, not with my FZJ80[2].&lt;p&gt;[1] The so called &amp;#x27;emission computer&amp;#x27; unit on the car is a simple pulse counter&amp;#x2F;comparator that activates a VSV on the carb to reduce backfire while descending downhill with the foot off the throttle.&lt;p&gt;[2] My brake booster is leaking a little bit, but at least it won&amp;#x27;t suddenly gives up on me while I&amp;#x27;m riding, still looking for a replacement.</text></comment>

Amazing car. It&amp;#x27;s built to last though, so its on-road handling is not as great as modern cars.</text></comment>
