I had a 1.8T and now have a GTTDI 150 and I would never go back to the petrol model. The diesel is as quick 0-60 if not quicker than the 1.8T and the mid range torque will make you grin. You will be able to keep up with most cars on the mway in 6th without a remap. There was always something missing from the 1.8T - just lacked grunt.
Don't know about the price - check parkers.co.uk. Make sure cambelt has been done. Shouldn't have much problem at 90k -  Diesels usually good for 3x that. Check the usual stuff with dealer.
