Hi everyone,
I've been interested in getting a VW TDI for a while now and I'm just looking to educate myself a little bit. Just don't have the $$ right now so I'm doing my homework. First off I don't want to buy brand new because I hate car payments so I'll only be considering used ones. I want to get your opinions on what year(s) would be the best for the greatest mileage... it needs to be turbo'd though just a personal preference and I'd like that extra power. I've heard that the newest VW TDI's are getting mileage that's less than some of the older ones like the late 90's and early 2000 models. As far as body style I was thinking 4 door so a Jetta or Golf sedan but not really interested in the Beetle. So if you have the time I'd appreciate your opinions on what you think the best year would be.
Also I'm not necessarily dead set on a VW TDI... so something similar with 40mpg or better and runs on diesel would interest me as well.
Thanks
George
