Kent,
I drove one of them TDI 2009 last fall with everyone aboard : I managed to
hit the 4,2 L/100km mark, 0,6 L/100km better than advertised. Oh, for you US
guys, it means that I achieved 56 mpg while the Transport Canada figure is
51 mpg, for US gallons obviously.
I wrote a post about this on TDICurious.ca : ¸

If you held a gun to my head to buy new, I'd look at a VW
TDI diesel or maybe a hybrid. Right now I've got a consulting
contract through January that has me commuting from NH to
RI -- 280 miles a day. Good highway manners, high mileage
and lots of miles between fill-ups mean a lot.
