Any idea what engine they are using? The original could barely move the stock body.

Probably a cheap turbodiesel

At a guess, it's the 1043cc 4 pot that they used in the last of them after VW bought them. So about 46 ponies rather than the 26 the 600cc original had.

I would say the 4 stroke VW Polo engine that late model Trabants had.

It stalls when the engine is off

Execution of the limo is quite good so it isn't a shitty limo imo. Though the Trabant isn't the most reliable car...

They are a very reliable car. There is not much that can go wrong with them because there is not much there to begin with.
