I had a diesel rabbit - 5-speed. Best I did was 31 MPG. I heard all that hype of 50 MPG... I'd suggest you find a Forum - I'm sure there is one - and ask real owners.

Hey mjb457,

Edmunds.com just released a new calculator that may help you decide (financially speaking) if getting rid of your PT for a more fuel efficient car is a good idea.

Check it out....
