Try defining the autocmd as:

autocmd BufNewFile * silent! 0r $HOME/.vim/templates/%:e.tpl | exe "normal! ggA " . expand("%")

Or, to make things a bit safer, use this function:

function! LoadTemplate ()
let [fi, sk] = [expand("%"), expand("$HOME/.vim/templates/") . expand("%:e") . ".tpl"]
if filereadable(sk)
exe "silent 0r " . sk
exe "normal! ggA " . fi
endif
endfunction

Best,
Paul
