I used my parent's '82 Vanagon as part of a science experiment in high school 
(amazing what car guys will come up with, huh?) and it did 0-50 in about 15 
seconds.  I typed up a disclaimer re: why I didn't go for 0-60, and explained 
that once in 4th gear, anything resembling acceleration abruptly disappeared. 
 In the same vein, I heard a quote once about a BMW Isetta that can be 
applied here:  " they don't so much accelerate as accumulate speed."
