find a better one, do you really want a non turbo? i picked up my v plate 3 door black turbo for £1500 with full mot, full vw history, 121000 miles, leather recaro heated seats, votex kit, climate control and sunroof!  :laugh: i had a 115 bhp and its never a gti, so much better the turbo, better on fuel etc etc, shop around mate, theres plenty out there

+1 since we are discussing it however finding a nice gt tdi 150 for less than two grand isn't going to happen so the 1.8t is the way to go, or 1.8 non turbo over the 2.0.
Opel have you checked the classified section on this site?
