The E stands for "Einspritzung" which is German for "Injection"
The L-spec cars usually had most of the luxury options featured as standard in
the US.
Things standard on the L-spec, according to my '73 owners manual and personal
experience:
-Trip odometer
-Clock
-Anti glare switchable rear mirror (interior)
-Lockable glove comp'ment
-Electric fresh air fan
-Eberspcher, in some countries.
-Make-up mirror in sun shade
-Halogen H4 headlights
-Cigarette lighter
-Bumper strips
-Carpets instead of rubber mats
-Radial tires
-Two map pockets in door panels
-Passenger sun visor on Squarebacks
There were probably more, but this is all I can remember seeing on my Variant
L, that I've not seen on regular Variants. Most of the late Fastbacks I've
seen here in Norway are TLs. I believe that a list like this can not be made
definite, as the different country's importers probably had a thing or two to
say when deciding what equipment should be offered in that market. Feel free
to correct me if I'm wrong about anything.
