Its hard to know what to do.. the move of so many cars to highly stressed turbo engines with big boost and big revs is equally as scary.

A recent turbo failure on a low km but just out of warranty 3 series diesel owned by a neighbour was quoted at over $6,500 for replacement..

What with twin clutch gearboxes, turbos and superchargers... and some using a KERS equivalent (Mazda 6?)... which of these technologies will last the ages? And the bank balance...
