Only have about 300km on the swap at this moment - fuel gauge seems to be
going down the same speed as the other conversions I have done which is in
the 30USMPG range.

The oil pan and pickup are not the original VW Golf ones, but it is the
stock angle for this motor.

That looks very nice.  Do you have initial mpg fuel consumption estimates
from your prototype?  Is the engine angle such that stock TDI oil pan/pump
can be used?
