I had an 85 VW diesal in college, and I don't know the exact numbers, but it got great gas mileage. I seemed to never get gas. A big disadvantage was the bad pickup, going up hills on the highway was almost impossible. I hear that VW has fixed that problem now though. Another disadvantage is that they are loud, but that's never bugged me.
