Looking at 2007 cars, is it correct the dsg auto,s are quicker and better MPG the the manual ones

In a word, yes. But also more to go wrong.

DSG has started to be used in year 2007 in VW. Very fast to change the gear, but recommend to use in sport mode otherwise goes lazy, no major issue I have face. Owned one 1.4 TSI DSG between 2007-2009.
