I thought that until I lived with one for 2 weeks. And I have a 3-year-old and a 4 week baby.

Granted though, they're not as practical as a Golf, but I was surprised. Superb car.

A good mate of mine has a mk6 Golf GT TDI 140 with Dsg  which has been mapped so is approx 175 bhp and a good few torques.

but also returns great mpg,  on a trip down from yorkshire to london the other night @ 60mph (due to fog) it averaged 72mpg.
  the normal average on the car is 55mpg though
Still Here!
