Has anyone had any experiences with these, owned one etc?
what are they like to drive etc?
ive been told 130 can easily go to 150bhp with a remap.

I've own the Ibiza tdi 130. Brilliant on fuel, loads of torque so overtaking is never an issue, pretty quick off the mark too - and yes a remap will see you to about 165 easily

A pd130 should see around 165 with a good stage1 map, with a custom stage 2 (provided you have done exhaust, filter and FMIC) you should see 170-185bhp.
Its not about the power figures though, its the torque. As not many 1t 230bhp cars can do 1/4mile in 13.5 secs, but when you say it has almost 400lb/ft of torque its a different matter  (need hybrid turbo to see 230)

As Dan said. I own the mk4 ibiza pd130. Was quite nippy car to start with. But with a remap it feels a totally different car.
P-torque stage1 remap 180bhp and 315lbft of torque.
Still returning good mpg. I am currently on my way to scotland and yesterday the mpg didn't drop below 65mpg.
I highly recommend them.

What PD engine is in a 54 plate Cupra? I was in front of one in town the other day on my bike and he cained it past me up a steep hill leaving a dark fog behind him, i could hardly breathe
Followed him for a few miles having a traffic light GP and once he got out of 1st gear my little 125 didnt have a chance
