Is Every 140 Diesel, a Bluemotion ?

Ive ordered a new Rocco, going for the GT 2.0 TDi 140 this time and when I put the deposit down and got note of the Reg plate, I came up as a Bluemotion aswell when I done a 'My Car Check' on it.
But I got phoned the other day to tell me that the car is actually not available anymore but he's found me one the same but with lower miles and parking sensors.

I'm just wondering if it's a Bluemotion or not. According to VW website every GT 140 is a Bluemotion. But I don't know if that's maybe just the new 2012 ones.
Mines is an 11 plate.

And because it's a GT spec does this mean the DSG comes with the flappy paddles ?

For the last couple of years all 140s have been bluemotion and yes the DSG will have paddles

Thanks man :)
I was hoping so. Since I do a lot of miles, motorway and town traffic.

It should have the BlueMotion badge on the tailgate. Price listed from 4th January 2011.

I've not seen the car yet, but I got a call from the salesman giving me the Reg plate. And once I checked it, it's shown up as expected... GT 2.0 TDi 140 Bluemotion DSG. And it's newer than I thought, only 9 months old and with 7500 miles. :D

Buzzin' ! Can't wait to swap for it.
