Put it this way. For an average of 12k a year your looking at a car that has done 96k and is 8 years old which has done which will be roughly a 2001 model.

If I was to get one I reckon I would try and get below 70k miles.

Just to give me a rough idea, could anyone give an estimation of the price to get a completely standard 1.8T to 200bhp?

Sorry for all the questions!

If you get a none AGU engine, you can do it for about £200 give or take :)

Yeah an AUM or AUQ will remap to over 200BHP and you'll have change left from £200.

I brought mine with 62k on mate but are prob getting quite rare now below 70k. Try and get one with the AUM engine as they respond well to tuning. Ive sold mine now but they are good motors if you get a good one thats been serviced etc :cool:
