For me it was the late 80's and early 90's

Chassis design had come on in leaps and bounds as had engine design but, the emission regs had not yet quite kicked in so you had great and very driveable engines with good economy and a drivetrain which was not covered in 'nannying' electronics.

Whats more vehicles were still reasonably light to, all adding to the package.
