| BMW 2002 TURBO (1972-1973) CAR HISTORYCar review on BMW 2002 TURBOMarketed to bolster the ebbing reputation of BMW's entry-level saloon in its run-out twilight years, the BMW 2002 Turbo lasted only 10 months into 1973. When petrol prices almost doubled overnight, shocked car buyers became acutely aware of the delicacy of oil supply from an Arab monopoly: suddenly this 17-mpg tearaway looked like an anachronism. The first sign of BMW's loss of nerve was the disappearance of the aggressive reversed Turbo lettering on the front spoiler, but by then the Turbo's days were already numbered: it was discontinued by a nervous Munich after only 1,672 had been produced.
The Turbo had stronger driveshafts and bearings all round, but still used the usual BMW configuration of MacPherson struts at the front and semi- trailing arms at the rear. Spring rates was increased all round, and there were anti-roll bars at both ends and Bilstein dampers on the back. The tyres - on special 6in x 13in (15cm x 33cm) Mahle alloy wheels — were 185/70xl3s Michelin XWXs. The brakes, which were vented discs gripped by four-pot callipers up front, large drums at the rear, had only one servo to the standard 2002's two. Inside, the Turbo featured rake-adjustable buckets. The only other changes were the addition of a boost gauge in a pod tacked on to the centre of the dash and a three-spoke sports steering wheel, while the face of the instrument binnacle became red.
