          Around 6 liters per 100 kilometers. Sorry, too lazy to convert that into miles per galon

          Not enough legroom for me I am afraid (204cm tall )
          Yes, not quite the most spacious car around. But it does the trick for my 182cm tall

            Very nice car, Nuno...

            It's Diesel powered? That explains the "low-RPM" range... (but it also means a LOT of Torque...)

                  Yes. 1900cc turbo-diesel, 130hp (150+ for real) and 310nm of torque.

                      Do you know how much this 310nm means in Kgfm? My standards in torque measurement are in kgfm...

                        hmmm, not really. Nm stands for Newtons.meter I think. Well, just to give you a figure, a Ferrari 360 Modena V8 engine has 372 nm of torque...

                          Wait, wait, after a little google magic http://hemsidor.torget.se/users/b/bo...rt/conv2_e.htm

                          310 nm is 228.64427 Lbft or 2743.7312 Lbin or 31.611203 kgfm

                          As someone said "men buy hp but drive torque"

                            YngwieM : i think to convert from Nm to Kg.m ones divide by 9.8 (gravity acceleration)

                            Nm/9.8 ---> Kg.m

                              My brother's father-in-law has an A4, and I fit decently in it. I'm 198cm tall (6'6"). My brother's wife has a Passat, and it's even better than the A4.
