I put 50 litres in mine twice a week, and do near as damn it 300 miles exactly between petrol stops which averages out to 27mpg. Mostly B roads with the odd bit of dual carriageway.

Ours averages 32-34, only dips to anything lower if we are ragging it. Has been up to 37-38 on a run.

Why? The consensus is that unless your nailing it you'll easily get well over 30 mpg (over 40mpg on long runs), and I think thats not much less than most petrol cars of a reasonable size, and you've got a hot hatch!!

I've just got a GTI TURBO and did a 60 mile trip (A road and about 17 miles of Motorway).  Was a boring drive as i was trying to see how high i could get the MPG.  I managed 40.1 which im well chuffed with!!
Most of the time im around 35-37 though.
Get the GT TDI if you want performance and Economy, but expect to pay more for it!
