I dont know the answer, but Mercedes (Daimler) has long technology in
diesels and turbo diesels.

Outside the USA there is a rather wide availability of decent technology.
My son in Norway bought
a Ford station wagon at auction for about $5000. (I was surprised to find
it was in great shape) New
cars there usually cost from $30,000 upward. (My bosses GS430 would have
cost $200,000 in taxes)

This little Ford has plenty of power, runs well, gets great economy, and is
a 4 cylinder diesel. Darn sure
doesnt run like what I would expect from a 4 cyl diesel.
