Ahh the CX... I've spent many hours in the backseat of a CX during family holidays around Europe as a kid. It was always funny watching the hydraulic suspension drop to the ground when parking.

Yes, have fond memories of ours, also did many long european trips with it.
The adjustable ride height was a fun feature too, along with the globes displaying RPM + speed (this was one of the early '76 model).
Ah the good old times...

I've put many miles on a RHD car (Ford Falcon - great car, BTW). IT was an automatic, but for the life of me, I cna't imagine trying to shift with my left hand. I see your point, but it seems to me more often dexterity is required of the shifting hand, as most of hte time, shifting is done in a straight line, either under braking or WOT, rather than mid corner.
Perhaps a similar analogy would be a guitar. Right hand guitars require more dexterity from the left hand, which does all the fingering, while the right hand strums or picks. Left hand guitars are hte opposite. I can't imagine trying to finger with my right hand.......though when I play trumpet, my right hand controls all of hte valves.

The really hard part is parallel parking.... I gave up on that very quickly.
And even worse was when a cop came up behind me on the motorway out of nowhere, it was a paniced two or three seconds trying to work out which side of the road to pull over to while trying to figure out why I was being pulled over. Then he passed me and kept going elsewhere.

On anything that I have to think about to the point of writing a spreadsheet, my thought process is "whatever other people use in this context" -> SI units -> "whatever other people use in this context". Since I am going by high school physics and it's been some time since I was in high school, SI units are very convenient for me in terms of keeping the units, measures, and laws of physics are neatly aligned.
