Which car models are available with DSG transmission?

I am fairly sure you listed a number of makes/models with DSG transmission options in a relatively recent reply in the Daily Telegraph. I failed to make a note of these and now, of course, I'm thinking about buying a new car and would prefer this type of transmission. I hope you can help and thank you in advance if you can.
