I have a mk7 2.0tdi GT with DSG, something you may associate with fast, hard driving (I know it's no GTi but its still nippy). Well thats how I drove my last car but something strange has happened........
.......I find myself driving everywhere in Eco setting & driving rather slow & relaxed! Maybe I'm obsessed with the 'see how high you can get the average MPG' game? Or maybe I enjoy driving it so much I want the journey to last as long as possible? Or maybe I'm just getting old?!
I think it's probably a combination of those 3 things....it's certainly a pleasure to drive & is easily the best car I've had over the last 15 years/5 cars. It's so easy & comfortable to drive sensibly yet just as easy to drive fast and stay in control. Anyway, it has surprised me how much my driving style has changed, simply by being in a different car (and I'm liking the cheaper fuel costs!)
