What's slower than a 1.8 non-turbo diesel Chevette?
A 1.8 non-turbo diesel Chevette with an auto trans!
Seriously, 0-60 was about 46 seconds... no that is not a lie.
About 8 seconds to get 1-2, and 2-3 shift happened around the 30 second mark.
However, when the roads were icy and the air was cold and you drove it slowly with a tailwind,
they would do better than 55 mpg, no lie.
We used to use a "salamander" kerosene heater on our in the winter for 5-10 minutes before it would start! Pretty cold-blooded in the summer, too.
