Having started a new job this week I'm now commuting 130 motorway miles a day and my 1.8T (190) is averaging around 36 mpg and has 32K on the clock. So that's around £95 of fuel a week with a bit of social use thrown in.
My dilema is that while the milage is still fairly low I could chop it in for a B7 2.0TDI on around an 06-07 plate which should return around 45-50 mpg and may well be a more relaxed drive as TDI's rev lower - right?
My dilema is that the job is only contract so may last 3 months or may last 3 years. If I get a TDI then end up changing job to something nearer to home I've heard that short journeys are not good for TDI's.
What do you recon?
