Just returned from a trip to Germany (also visited Alsace region of France and Switzerland). All the Saabs I saw were diesel. Right behind one during the truckers strike as we sat, and sat.
It was a 1.9 or 1.8 TiD as I recall.
A lot of diesel cars and a lot of cars not available in the U.S. Only saw one SUV this entire trip.
YES!
The rental I had was an Audi A3 diesel. Don't complain about the price of gas here. I paid about euro 80 for about 52L of the less expensive diesel. That works out to about $9.15/gal.
The car gave me about 43mpg over my 600 total mile trip most of this on one tank of fuel. At times, I was up to 180km/hour so this is pretty decent.
On a side note, they asked me to fill out what I want for a package so thanks to everyone's previous input. May be moving to Russia and travel to 26 other countries as part of my duties.
Thanks again, all!
