My 13 plate ibiza cupra has used 12 litres of oil in 9600 miles that 1l to 800 miles

The crap thing is that VW say your oil use is within acceptable limits.

1lt per 600 miles is the point where they will admit high oil use !!!!!

Glad I went for the 2.0TDI - Only 0.5lt oil use over 34,000 miles ( yes it was changed every 10,000 )

Think the limit in the manual is 0.5l per 1000km, around 620 miles. Do they really not admit to an issue until 1lt in 600 miles? :-o
