The entire first page of results, beat 70mpg average !

Best result of someone on that list, is a record tank of 2.32 L/100km - that's 101.4 mpg (US) over 500 miles.

The best lifetime average is 90mpg !

Similar results with the Audi A2 3L and an even better record tank :

Best tank : 2.26L/100km over 500 miles, or 104mpg (US).

I guess if we could get the good stuff like you guys overseas, it'd make my job a lot easier. Is it possible to get the 1.2 TDI engine imported into the States?
