Is that the one which needs/needed a turbo charger? Many older RHD vehicles are
grandfathered in as being built before the EPA got hinky about blaming the
majority of air pollution on automobiles. But, I know of what you speak. A
friend returned from a trip to Italy where he rented a diesel Ford Focus. So,
being favourably impressed he went to a local Ford agency to buy one for use
here.

HAH! Even though the European version meets the EU's more stringent pollution
standards and is cleaner than acceptable USA diesels ... it's not the same
flavour of clean as the bureaucraps at EPA will accept.
