I think the 4 eyed polos are much cooler, particulaly the 100brake TDi ones, look at Daves its

Love these although in the current climate, any form of TDi would be best I'd imagine, unless you're doing minimal miles.
I have seen a TDi badge 6N car, would it be a 1.4TDi?

Insurance can sometimes be very high, the missus wanted one a while back and they wouldnt cover her on one! we ended up getting a 2003 polo tdi which is a fair bit quicker than the gti 
the mk5 polo gti is often overlooked as a hot hatch option but is probably one of the better ones 
Thats because it isn't a hot hatch
