MARKET TRENDS • At around the turn of the 1980s, the American car industry had a problem. US citizens had developed a taste for Japanese cars, so much so that the big domestic companies like GM and Ford were losing major chunks of their market shares. Import restrictions soon followed, meaning that the marques from the Far East had to get creative. If they were going to continue raking in cash while selling fewer cars overseas, the cars in question would need to edge upmarket.

BABY STEPS

FIGURE OF EIGHT • The first V8 Jaguar saloon has enjoyed a mixed reputation. But what’s it like today?

DIRTY DOZEN • Nobody needs this many cylinders in their car engine but it’s nice to know you can. As the green writing on the wall appears for the V12 engine, we compare some favourites.

THE REAL THING? • Forget the ‘kit car’ associations and the better replica cars can come surprisingly close to the real deal

RISING STAR • As Silver Spirit values climb off the floor, the earlier Silver Shadow has gained in classic status. Now’s your chance to grab one while they remain affordable.

MGB (1962-80) • The life and times of the ultimate evergreen British icon that’s still sold today as a new EV.

STAFF CLASSICS • We revisit some old projects, welcome some new members to the collection and look into staffers’ own garages.

SPICED UP • Porsche’s first foray into the SUV market may have been a fancy VW underneath, but makes an intriguing alternative to a modern Range Rover.

MARKET TRENDS • Nissan’s humble Micra has provided the platform for some memorable retro boutique creations, which have become popular grey imports.

HANDS ON • Peter ponders on how driver’s handbooks have changed over the years to match changes to the cars they are written for.
