What about the "Don't re-invent the wheel" thingy ?

The funny thing about that analogy to me has always been that throughout history we have constantly improved the wheel through reinvention. Software wheel-reinvention is similarly reasonable.

The old wagon wheels don't work so well with the new cars.

I think you are referring to "re-make". Re-invent is not re-make. You can re-make, but you shouldn't re-invent.
