I have the manual in my Ed 35 and the gearbox is fine, not the best but I am comparing to Boxster and JCW which are both excellent. I am also a fan of manual cars and never considered a dsg, drove one but just left me cold. As for economy mine does early 30s on a mixed drive 25 mile each way commute, I am sure with hard driving and the R it would drop to mid 20s.

The VW is a good car no question but coming from a JCW it feels a bit grown up and civilised. I would guess the Scirroco is similar and I would say have a good drive in one as it may feel a bit dull after the zed.
