Question '85 cutlass ciera diesel?

What kind of mileage did these cars get? Anyone on here ever own one? Saw one for sale in the paper and wondered if they were any good? I'm familiar with diesels so they don't scare me too much. Any info appreciated. thanx Casey

Not very good IMO.
1982-1985 Oldsmobile 4.3 L diesel V6, 85 hp (63 kW) and 165 ft·lbf (224 N·m)

And it's one of the first FWD cars made by GM.

I realize it wont have much power I just want it for the fuel mileage. Just wondered if anyone knew what kind of mpg this car could get.
