Has anyone else seen this on
ebay, it's a 410 with a 900cc 3cyl Kubota diesel. That's gotta be mega slow.

I love the quote 'quite slow on the road
really I never would have thought a 24bhp engine designed for use as a hydrolic pump would be slow

Oh dear, that's got to be gutless! The standard 410 engine's something like 45bhp and 65ft/lbs
It's going to be so underpowered the mpg will go down surely.

Please take it for a test drive and report your findings
there is one major benifit, its gotta be a lot lighter than most other diesels
not sure if I could handle that though, I got really bored driving my dads work hack while my golf was off the road it's a 1.9 n/a diesel mk3 golf van, Damn it was slow.
