amc_black Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 Hey guys, looking at putting my hands on a nice one of these as a daily driver... Wondered if anyone had any experience of the model (espec. diesel) or knows of a good owners club. There are a couple on Pistonheads but ideally want to learn more before going to look at any. Thanks in advance. Quote
JeffC Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 they come as a 150bhp in the diesel... 150 isnt as responsive as the 130 tdi , bigger turbo so feel more laggy but go well top end and respond really well to a remap .. Prices are high on the anniversary , I see them at stupid money.. for the same money you can get a Mk5 golf gttdi 2.0 and thats a much better car Quote
samcooke Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 http://uk-mkivs.net is the place to go. By today's standards the 1.9TDi is very crude and the more powerful ones can't come close to putting down the torque properly. FWIW I drove lots of MKIVs for the wife last year and all but the 5 and 6 pot petrols felt coarse, ended up with a V6. I do quite like the anni body kit though. Quote
a4drk Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 I thought the GTi Anniversary was a Petrol with 180bhp? and the BBS alloys? David Quote
amc_black Posted January 23, 2007 Author Posted January 23, 2007 Thats right with the BBS wheels/bodykit/lowered suspension but it also came as a TDi... Quote
