I've been buying VW Diesels since 2001 and I love them. Currently I own the jetta and passat. The former rarely drops below 42mpg, the later rarely below 35mpg. Both offer all the 'luxury' features i require and safetly along with fantastic mileage, leather, etc etc. Now if only, as advocated in the article, BMW, Audi, and Mercedes brought ALL their diesel powerplants over i'm sure we'd see the Europe effect where by luxury diesels exceed sales of petrols... because of the obvious mileage and power advantages (ie the A8 V8 TDI is faster then the V8 petrol).
