ol' yeller,
You're certainly welcome. As stated, we've owned two, TDI VW Beetles, an '03 and an '04. I loved those cars. Neither one of them EVER went below, 42 mpg. And both got me between 49-50 on the road at 60 mph. And, they never slowed down at the sight of any grade I pointed them at. If I hit the bottom of the grades at 60, I crested them at 60 and, that's with the A/C on and, as many people as would fit in the car.
I was not fond of the gas VWs because of the much poorer gas mileage of that era. I haven't looked into the latest ones, as in the '13s '14s or 15's so, I don't even know what engine is offered in what models. But, if we had a choice, and we were in the market, and if they made one, we'd both like a brand new, convertible TDI Bug. That's a hot looking little retro-car in our opinion.
And, it's the only car I'd ever buy that has a "stick" tranny.
