Welcome, Peter.

Please add a subject line to your e-mails.  You could also leave out the
  NOTICE at the end.

The Bentley manuals that we have in North America do not include 1.6 TD
engine information, as the Vanagon (T25) was never sold here with that
engine.  Do you mean 40 kilometers per gallon, or is the UK gallon that
much bigger than the USA variant?  I get 29-30 miles per gallon in my
Westy with no turbo.
