Title: help me solve this debate over what bhp model my golf is.
Post by: lewisgraham on 01 July 2007, 17:16

Right basicly i have bought a golf gt tdi and it has made a big debate on another forum of weather or not what bhp model it is, i made a mistake to say its maby a gti tdi  :rolleyes:as it has a gti badge on the back. and it comes up as a 130 bhp diesel on insurence but from everyones help on here tells me its a 150 bhp model.
I think its a 150 from what you all tell me etc and other fabia vrs owners say its faster than theres when sitting in it.
so i am wanting to copy and paste peoples coments from here to clarify what model it is.

thanks  :wink:

ment to also say.
1. yes it has a 110kw sticker in the boot and in the service history.
2. it has a front mounted intercooler/someone mentioned 130s have a side mounted one and 150's have a front mounted.
here is a quick snap of it below

its a 150 for sure.  I had the same problem with my 130; it was coming up as a 115 with some insurers.
