My mate's got a mint g40 and was thinking of buyin this as well, what do you lot think its worth, i understand its the older shape, with the later style front end, really the value i suppose is in the install, engine conversion and interior. He's also got a tdi polo 02 plate thats chipped.

I know its worth what someones prepared to pay, would say £4000 be all its money? discuss??

210 bhp 340lbs torque

looks tidy but i thought 210 was the limit for those engines so might have clutch and turbo problems in the future

im about to stick a brand new pd in my golf, il tell you they are not cheap engines! if thats on the standard turbo i think its been rollered on optimistic rollers for 210hp/340. a pd engine with 340 ft lb would generally have more hp too but we dont know exactly what it is.

bet it upsets a lot of other cars

You do realise youve just made yourself sound like an even bigger bellend?

The standard clutches on VAG tdi's is 300lbft so if it hasnt been upgraded it aint going to last much longer but he seems rather optimistic. I have a PD130 and its remapped to 163bhp, the PD160 (cupra) only maaps to 200bhp

Was looking alright till it said dump valve no no no no on a diesel.

Also power figure may be a tad high, probably about 200. If its a new install it could have a new clutch which would last for a while, it also depends how you drive it.
