I think you’re confusing durability for reliability here.
30-50 year old vehicles will go forever, but usually need small repairs fairly often. Modern vehicles will do 200k-300k km with no problems, and then everything bad starts happening, because it’s not like anyone maintains them.
So the 30-50 year old ones are more durable, but the newer ones are more reliable. Until they’ve reached the end of their useful life, that is.
There’s also survivorship bias. All the crapily designed cars from 30-50 years ago are long scraped while some of the well designed ones are still around. With “current” cars you see the whole spectrum.
Absolutely. There are entire marques you don’t see anymore.
