Commonly, we associate turbochargers with hot hatches and sports cars. The first turbocharged road car was the stylish Chevrolet Corvair, and Ford and Renault in particular ran rampant with turbos on their 1980s hatchbacks. However, the same decade a

When the MGB bowed out in 1980, it had been in production for 18 years and was already touted as a classic. It’s now over 25 years since the launch of the BMW Z3, yet it’s a car that’s still only just on the cusp on being a classic. With values for g
