CIB,
When I was umming & arring about which Eos model to buy - petrol or diesel - an Eos suddenly arrived as if by magic & parked right in front of where I was standing. Once the owner had finished locking up I approached him & asked his advice. He had a 2 litre TDI & had just finished a 5000 mile trip in Europe.
He swore by the diesel & advised that it was very frugal on fuel compared with the 2 litre FSI but, of course, not as fast. He was a delighted owner & thoroughly recommended one.
On his advice I opted for the diesel. I've just finished a round trip to London & back (to Volksworld) this evening & over the 450 miles we averaged 46 miles per gallon & are still showing a quarter tank full.
We stopped at Fleet Sevices on the M3 & parked next to another Eos, the only one we saw. Didn't see any at Volksworld although I'm sure there must have been some there but there were certainly some lovely Beetles & Buses there. Coming back, it was "top down" as it was a beautiful afternoon with very little on the road.
In 50 years time will we be looking at the classic Eos?
