Although the turbo comes in low ( 1750RPM i belive) it suffers very bad lag. I had to drop down to 2nd once when slowing down for cyclists on a back road. When i tried putting my foot down nothing happened, dropping to 2nd sent my passengers into the boot!!

VW qoute 0-60 in 8.5sec. But this figure takes into account passengers, half full tank and luggage. In reality its 7.3sec.
