Just received the following press release (!) Volkswagen is pleased to report a successful performance in this months 2010 ALD Automotive/Total ECO 10 MPG Marathon. Two vehicles were entered, both of which demonstrated impressive economy, thanks to a combination of engineering, technology and careful driving. The Golf GTI with 2.0-litre 210 PS engine and DSG automatic gearbox has a manufacturer combined figure of 38.2 mpg. Driven by David Madgwick and Ashleigh White, it achieved 55.63 mpg a 45.62 per cent improvement to claim the best percentage improvement accolade...!
I have just completed a 320 mile A-road round trip in my Touran 2.0 FSi and it achieved an indiciated 45.3 with 6 of us in it. Quite happy with that for a petrol 7 seater.
4-page article on this achievement, by the driver David Madgwick, in the Feb 2011 issue of Volkswagen Driver (on sale in mid Jan) www.volkswagendrivermag.co.uk

I meant in the Touran Brooky. I know they do the N/A 2.0 FSI engine in general. Ive driven a Golf 2.0 FSI Sport non Turbo with DSG. However, just looked on Parkers and see that they did do the N/A 2.0 Touran.
ok Hmmm think the biggest they do or used to was 1.4L TSI Petrol (1.2L TSI too) they don't do any NASP Taurans anymore http://www.volkswagen.co.uk/#/new/touran-gp-ii/which-model/engines/overview/
