52,000 Euros for the base-, and I do mean base, model
with a 2.1L, 81 hp, 4-cyl common-rail diesel with a
5-speed (Germany).  If they were ever to import it, I
can't see any potential US buyer being tempted by
anything less than a 2.7 l, 156 hp, 5-cyl common-rail
diesel to deal with the 3500 kg (7700 lb) curb weight.
The 2.7 looks the engine we're seeing in the US
Sprinter.
