Hi Davide,
the answer is not very easy because you've already mentioned the two main aspects: speed and fuel consumption. Of course, the turbo is much faster while the naturally aspirated engine often has to struggle to keep up with modern campers (like the Sprinter). On the other hand fuel consumption is higher with the turbo. In some older magazines I found consumptions mentioned between 13 and 15 l diesel per 100 km. Compared to that, my 1982 LT with 75 PS only uses about 11 l diesel. Maybe some other LT-drivers with turbo engines can give better real life fuel consumptions than my old mags, but I've often read about higher consumption of the TD in this forum. Your choice!

Bye, ww
