None of the 86 on up diesels say diesel on the back, they just say
turbo, 2.5 turbo etc, till you get to the 95 E300, it says diesel on the
back. Then when the turbod it it says turbodiesel. The 140 started out
not saying anything, turbo or otherwise. I think the last year or 2 of
them said turbodiesel, although that may have been something somebody
added on. I have seen them say that but didnt think they came that way
orignally.

The one-year-only 1987 300D doesn't have the word Diesel on the trunk, just
the D in the model name and the Turbo badge on the right side. I guess this
Bluetec" thing takes it one step further. BTW, is there any badging on VW
Diesels other than the TDI badge? It's funny that a Diesel car isn't
"cool", but any pickup powered by such an engine is clearly visible, D I E S
