Savvy buyers are well aware that supply is one of the key influencers in any market, and if naturally aspirated engines are to be a thing of the past, it stands to reason that what you can no longer buy will be in greater demand: just look at prices of Land Rover Defenders now they’ve finally gone out of production.

While turbocharging technology will develop further with time, the most memorable naturally aspirated engines will always hold a special allure to car enthusiasts, so expect them to be valued accordingly.

However, as our examples show, simply having a great naturally aspirated engine does not necessarily make a car a good investment – the whole package needs to appeal, so choose carefully.
