Keep in mind, most are probably vent filling their diesels, which gives a good extra 8 liters... Everyone should remove the vent valve to get this as there is no downside on the diesels. 1200 km should be easy on the highway for a Mk4 diesel.
Yeah I vent, it does add quite a bit. Keeping in mind too to abbotsford requirs a lot of mountain driving. If I were to drive all highway I'd probably be in the 12 - 1300 area too.

Stefan if you put a 5/6 speed instead of the slush box it would be no problem. Passat's are heavier, bigger engine, and of course a bigger fuel tank, and all slush boxes. I did have dreams of converting mine, but repairs on things like the balance shaft were coming and I didn't feel like going through all that. The B4 Passat Tdi has been known to get this mileage, of course the tank sizes were the same as well. The chip also only helps if you DON'T use the extra power
