>Can anyone tell me what engines are in the VW LT 35, Hi-Torque vans?, are they all turbo diesels, or are some non turbo engines?, i'm after a 1996 Hi-Torque, but the person selling it hasn't put if it's a Turbo diesel or not.

It is in the nature of turbo, that there will be always more power in that kind of engine than in normal ones.
But in LT's you always should be aware of the fact that there are very diffrent gear transmisson ratios depending which rear axle is used in the van.
That means you can have a turbo engine in a van with short ratio with very good speedup but you can end at the same or even lower high speed than a van without turbo but long ratio.
So, if you are interested in a van arrange a testdrive with the van and check out if the van is useful for your needs.

So long Murphy
