Do any VW group TD engines run in RWD configuration? Vans??

I'd also be weary of LPG if you want to keep running costs down, as it's rising in price 78p/litre here - ok still cheap compared to petrol/diesel but still!
Wasnt the 940 TD (dunno the code) a VW? not a nice one mind. Its pointing the right way though.

LPG, Heard someone say the freeze on government tax rape is due to end soon too? 2012/13?

Me and a mate talked about this 2 years ago, D5 all the way, then perhaps the knowledge can be used to put a D5 in a 360 :D

240, 740 and 940 diesels are VW, S/V40 diesels are Renault, D5 was first Volvo's own diesel in passenger car?
