just noticed mate, are you sure its a 130bhp model, as am i right in thinking its a y-reg??? If so then i think you'll find its the 115bhp model like mine. the 130bhp models were introduced later 2001 i think :S

115 or 130 doesnt matter, still better than my last one and alot better for work.

Yea, definatly. My 1.8 turbo was quicker but wasnt as relaxing or as easy to drive. The tdi motor is soo good for crusing along. Going to get it remapped within the next few months, should be very fun after that.

much more fun to drive, and theres the fun of replacing your clutch after a while too... win win!
