Lotta small errors or 'not quite rights' in the Wiki article. They say the 1.6NA diesel was only available in the US models in 1982, and that's not true. They most definitely were available in 83. They say 'four wheel drive' right below that for the Syncro, when 'all wheel drive' would be the correct term, 'these days." Some Syncro's have '4WD' in bold letters right on the nose, but in more modern terms there is a distinction between 4WD and AWD, and Syncro's have AWD, and they should be kept that way, btw, for several reasons.
