I couldn't find my Feb.94 issue of European Car at home to check the
stat's I quoted on Sept. 22.  Finally found the mag today (at work). 

It was a I5 2.5 L turbo diesel (TD NOT TDi),  115 hp at 4000 RPM and
196 lb-ft of torque at 2250 RPM in a C4 body Audi 100.   The test was
co-sponsored by Audi and Continental tires and was held at Continental's
2200 m high speed test track with "semi-circular" high speed banking at
each end,  near Hanover Germany. The completed 2800.4 km (1750 mi or so)
on the single 80L tank of diesel.  Not bad.

On page 76 of the Feb. 94 issue of European Car, there is an article
about
 the new Audi 100, 2.5 TD (not sure if is TDi - I will check at home
tonight). 
The article head line is:

World News:  World Record Audi - An Audi 100 with a 2.5 turbo diesel is

driven 2800.4 km on one 80 L tank of fuel
