I have a 2011 Jetta Sportwagen TDI and so far love it. I traded my Honda Element for it because 1)the dealer told me no more hauling kayaks on the roof (they caused leaks into the passenger compartment) and 2) if I couldn't haul toys, I was not going to put up with 18-21 mpg (without the boats). Haven't had any long trips with the Sportwagen yet - but in mixed driving I get 38-40 mpg average. Diesel and gas aren't that different in price right now. As Tulip said, it came nicely apportioned - heated seats, mirror blinkers, etc. We had a colder than average for my area winter (which means some mornings in the mid-teens) and there was never a problem starting it up.
I've hauled file boxes in the back - no toys yet.
