umm.... what about batteries (yes, i did read the listing, but it does say "half cut".)
i'm sure the prius' weight has a lot to do with it carrying a load of batteries.
you would still get better fuel milage if you swapped in a little polo 1.4TDi (euro version of a few years back)... in that car it gets about 4.3l/100km... not to mention faster!
however - there is a guy in the US that converted his mk1 diesel to hybrid - towed a trailer with batteries onboard! it was mainly an experiment, and i think he said his milage was about the same as with the normal diesel engine (since he was towing a trailer load of batt's the whole time)
'07 Touareg V6 TDI with air suspension
'98 Mk3 Cabriolet 2.0 8V
'99 A4 Quattro 1.8T
Thats ok
I got the prius because the lease per month is less than the fuel bill per month of the Discovery.
I was spending so much on fuel that I had to stop work on the Mk1!
There are a few cars i would like to own in my life and with the fuel burn of the Prius maybe I will have a chance of doing that.
Eventually when I finish the MK1 I wouldnt mind a ratted 1958 - 1960 Fin car
just because they are so stupidly extreme.
Plus imagine how a Mk1 and a rat Finned car would lokk parked next to each other.
Actually I meant to thank you for the tip in your resto thread on the sump baffle. I bought one a few months back and it seems like a nice bit of kit

NIck
Woah thats a pretty big saving.
Yeah that would be cool to own something like that eventually.
Glad to hear i could be of some help with the windage tray, they were an absolute steal for 40 bucks!
