Ronald -

Very nice homage to an auto that created a market niche (1964 1/2 model year). I can't imagine there are many in Germany, but at least this one has a six cylinder engine so the fuel costs are less burdensome.

Stu, in Europe fuel is getting pretty expensive, a 6-cyl. is not bad for an every day driver.

For you maybe!

Obviously you don't buy one of these if you worry about fuel consumption, but I wouldn't buy a car that did less than 50 to the gallon these days.

Just about to do a deal on one that averages 53 mpg in the "EU Combined cycle" and nearly 70 on the "open road"
