I've got a '93 Euro and underpowered it's not.  Compared to the busses or
Vanagons, the Euros have much more power
The real advantage is the winter handling.  We've plowed through impossible
snow and ice that had all cars but ours sliding into the guardrails.  Now
the engine compartment is a different story.  Just the fact that they made
the radiator to pop out to change the plugs is a good indicator that they
put 2.5 liters in a 1 liter bag. :>)
