Chris, This has absolutely no vanagon content, but anyway... I have a 1995 850 turbo wagon 5 speed. It's dual fuel, propane or gasoline. At the moment, gas is $1.20 liter, diesel $1.00 and propane is $0.48 liter. I don't think it's a well built or reliable car, although what other choices are there if you want a station wagon? Subaru and Ford taurus. I had a terrible experience with a passat wagon, took a couple years off my life. Does the AC work? ha Turn the boost up yet? The 5 speeds are reliable to 300 hp anyway.
