Read our tuning guide to the 3 series BMW and avoid the common pitfalls and address the weakspots. In particular the Ultimate Driving Machine really kicked things off in 1985 with the E30 M3 which was produced as a race car for the road.
BMWs naturally have very good suspension, especially thanks to the 50:50 weight distribution.

The Renault laguna was a good attempt at creating and affordable and comfortable executive car. It was clearly aimed at a wide audience with a massive array of engine option, even from its launch date.
The best engines for a Laguna Tuning project range from the 2.0T 16valve engine to the super smooth 3.0V6 engines. The former is easier to tune up with a simple tune/remap and sports exhaust and induction kit offering a boost of around 40bhp. The 1.8 and 1.6 engines are fairly dull and do not make good candidates for tuning.

Designed as a convenient run around town car, it came with a wide variety of smaller engine sizes. From a tuning point of view you really need to get an engine of 1.4 litres or greater and preferable a 1.6 or more for the best results.
With the arrival of the XR2, the XR2i tuning firms started producing turbo kits for the Fiesta which pushed the power to 125bhp. (Considering the low weight of these early cars they are still able to keep up with more modern cars with bigger engine power.)
