I think that this is true of loads of 'modern' gadget's Mike, they do because they can which then makes things so complicated.
let's face it, most of us carry around a device in our pockets that we glibly refer to as a mobile 'phone yet this thing has more computing power than an Apollo Moon Rocket!
Modern vehicles are have more and more 'computer controlled' gizmo's. These are fine when the vehicles are new, the technology is reasonably fresh, and it all works well, in a few years time however...
I foresee the value of certain second-hand vehicle to hold really well up to a certain point it it's age, and then plummet when the expensive systems start to go down. Let's face it, hardly anyone mends anything nowadays, they just replace the whole unit, and it'll be the cost of these replacements that kippers the value of the vehicles.
