VW sold in UK gets 78.5 mpg (see video)
Video here: http://video.staged.com/localshops/vw_passat_785_mpg_in_the_uk
The guy says they are manufactured in the good old USA, but because there wouldn't be enough gas tax revenue made to keep the roads repaired they are not allowed to sell them here...
(I did a search and found two old posts which mention vehicles getting this kind of mileage.)
