Just as a thought exercise – if you had to pick a new – modern sports car that had proper hydraulic, rather than electric, power steering what would it be?
Just walked past about a 7 year old Audi R8, hence the question. I’m sure the last generation Cayman would have be on the short list... |

Power-steering racks. In my experience, power-steering racks seem to leak more often in later cars. I am not sure if the pump runs at a higher pressure or if there is some other design issue, but my early 928s’ power-steering racks have been trouble-free, while my later cars have all required at least one new or rebuilt rack.
