Best Diesel for 6k ??
« on: 06 June 2011, 22:39 »
Well running the mini is proving more expensive than i thought to run (more than my 1.8T !!) so really fancy moving back to a Diesel again..

The only requirements are i want nothing bigger than a 2.0.. Must be hatchback.. Not to worried about mileage (but dont want galactic)..

Any suggestions ??

So far i have

A3
Seat Leon
Golf GT TDI

I'd go for an Octavia, A3 or the Leon. Maybe a Golf5 GT 170 if you can find one for £6k Nice car, nice drive, very comfy, decent MPGz and a Hatchback.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

I think*  the GT Sport (TDI) is the 170bhp and the GT (TDI) is the 140?




*My thinking is never always correct and sometimes/most times based on assumptions... we all know what the mother of all f@ck's is...

Cheers Jay.. I prefer the 140 anyway.. remap to 170 is more than enough for me at the moment.. Have just been looking and texted and emailed a few just awaiting replies.. also emailed a guy about his A3 who is talking to his brother and getting back to me..

All suggestions welcome people  :smiley:
