Raimund, I say one thing, and one thing only: South Africa!
The 5-cylinder Audi engine is offered in a 2553 ccm version in the Caravelle
(Vanagon) down there. Bore: 82,5 x stroke 95,5 mm. An output of 136 hp and 200
Nm, which makes the 1998 SA Caravelle do a 0-100 kmh in 19 secs, and gives a top
speed of 163 kmh (100 mph). It also has a 5-speed tranny.
