R32 fuel consumption, quick reply needed!

We try and keep the love here in the MK5 den of man love. The rest of the forum however is on some sort of hate campaign

Hate/jealousy.... its all the same

From a VW dealer I am thinking 19k privately nearer Edition30's. 

Some of the stealership twits still think that they can sell these at £24k.....some are still in complete denial.

A local independent near me is selling a similar spec 56 (06) spec DSG for £16,990 which I think is about £2-3k over priced.

£17k which i thought was a great price

Manual, Like the thought of DSG but the novelty will wear off after a while. Not tried it though, you never know, might change it after I've tried it

oh you are so wrong on that one, 2 years having DSG cars and still get a thrill from having one with.

Well done for buying such a Bargain

Well had my R32 just over a month now and going back to the topic I am averaging 22.4 mpg, which is mainly motorway miles. This is less than I was hoping for but I am loving the car soooo much! And petrol has come down so costs just over £40 to fill her up!

Good to hear your enjoying it. 22mpg with mainly motorway driving . .  ouch !

3.2 V6 so you cant really complain (not that you are btw)

I get 28-30mpg on my R32 on the motorway... and its only got 1300 miles on the clock. Around town I get 22-26mpg. Bought it with 37 miles on the clock.

That is a little low tbh. I tried sticking to about 70-80 over a 2hr journey and still get 31-33mpg!
