...15 years ago volkswagen had a diesel car (lupo) that would require 3liter diesel for 100 kilometers (77 mpg). It was a regular production car, I wish they'd sold them here!

The introductory price of the Lupo 3L was 30,000 Deutschmark in 1999. To understand the value of this amount without calling upon historical exchange rates and contrasting juxtaposition of purchasing powers please understand that one could have buy a well-provided Mercedes for the same price.
Furnished with magnesium-aluminium tailgate, ultra-thin windows and gas-saving tires to name but a few measurements the Lupo 3L was a high-tech product but affordable for authorities only. But in the second-hand car market the car was the king.
