Wow!   One review done in the UK says the Zetec Diesel Focus averages 58 mpg...and their highway best was 75 mpg!


Now the Focus is a small car, but maybe the vanagon conversion could do better than 30?


Bostig fellas...know anything about this engine?


Anyone have a contact at Ford that could inquiry about future US models?

beast.  1.6l "TDCi" a/k/a the DV6.  Are these available at all in the
US?  Would they work with the Bostig kit?
