Well... they say the design for CRD was done by CJ in Germany. They don't have high flow pumps at regular petrol station in EU. Their small diesel cars all have narrow filling tubes and the car pumps have low pressure for diesel. It wasn't designed with Oz outback in mind. But they screwed up the vent system anyway.
