> the steering was very heavy (as in lifting weights heavy)

The 1310 didn't have power steering :)

But it can be worse. You could try driving a 2 ton Mercedes with non functional power steering. That's a sweat inducing task.

Anyway, with no power steering you have to keep the car moving at a snail's pace when turning the wheel. No adjusting wheels in place if you're not up to date with your weight lifting. This skill got lost before the skill to drive a manual.
