Eventually VW made a 2.4 liter 5-cylinder direct-injected turbo diesel, however the model "name" escapes me.
I read in another forum that the D20 powered Volvo 240's were sold as taxis in Norway mainly, in NA form. The 5 cylinders engine with direct injection that you mention was used in the 850 Diesel in Europe, and later replaced with the Volvo D5.
