dear want diesel that is my exact engine set up ... except now i have the 1.9 i can assure you that the mileage i enjoyed with the 1,6 was amazing i have yet to take a super long trip with the 1.9 so i am unsure what the mileage will be there ... but as a daily driver it gives excellent performance -- loads of power and speed to spare ... at least with the california model i cant imagine the joker unit like what is shown here would be much different now for what it is worth i will also relate my personal experience with purchasing an imported german vehicle it wasnt until i got the stars of early ownership out of my eyes that i noticed the port side door had been replaced that likely the front window had too and that the port bow crumple zone had been used just as described ... to crumple -- a pretty good ... though not fantastic repair job had been done -- not that this detracts from our enjoyment of our westie .. which we really love... but it certainly would fail the gowesty never had a crash -- test and also for what it is worth the guys at gowesty who work in the shop loved our 5 speed factory diesel they said they had never heard such a sweet running machine --- the owner of the one listed on ebay will likely be very very happy it is a joker or atlantic model ... i would imagine see others at http://rccimport.com/pages/detail.asp?ProdID=713 yours On Tue, Dec 16, 2008 at 5:15 PM, <JordanVw@aol.com> wrote: > this is kinda cool. > > > http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Volkswagen-Bus-Vanagon-TURBO-DIESEL-VW-VANAGON- > > HIGH-TOP-CAMPER-FACTORY-TURBO-DIESEL_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQitemZ220328501977QQsspa > genameZRSSQ3aBQ3aSRCHQ3aUSQ3a101<http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Volkswagen-Bus-Vanagon-TURBO-DIESEL-VW-VANAGON-HIGH-TOP-CAMPER-FACTORY-TURBO-DIESEL_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQitemZ220328501977QQsspagenameZRSSQ3aBQ3aSRCHQ3aUSQ3a101> > > > ************** > Make your life easier with all > your friends, email, and favorite sites in one place.
