That said, the new petrol versions are that good you'd have to be doing taxi driver kms to recover the extra cost of the diesel car. If you do go for the Tdi, go the DSG - we have the 6 speed and although I love manuals, it is just too much cog swapping.
Yeah I was about to say the GT (1.4l SC & TC) is pretty economical itself, you add the extra fuel used when you chip the TDI there can't be much in it?
