History
In the 1980s the Polish car research centre (OBR SO) tested the 1.6 Volkswagen diesel from the Passat in the Polski Fiat 125p and gave a positive opinion on fitting it. The diesel 125p was priced at about 4,500 (thousand) dollars, making it the cheapest diesel-engined car in Poland, but it was slow with only 40 kW and used about 7.5 litres per 100 km.
