I agree, best car I've ever had too. I love it! Haven't had much chance to drive it properly yet as I live close to work, but even the short drive to work makes me happy  :smiley:

I will also be getting the GTI with DSG (Monday - weather permitting!) - so reports of 38mpg at this early stage are encouraging.

Around town? The consumption you get is great! Take it for a proper drive and see the average consumption afterwards. It'll be above 35mpg for sure.
