Get a GT TDI - my old man got this one a few months back

Its the 130 model and its superb to drive,you can leave it in 4th at 30-40mph and it pulls like its in second.
Mostly he is doing short trips of about 10miles and it returns around 46mpg.On a longer trip you can see 55-65.
Another + for the GT TDI range is they hold there money alot better over the petrol versions.

I dont think the V6 comes with anymore goodies then the other models.
Most of the cars just had extra options added from the dealers.

Yep i just bought a GT TDi for the other half.
Its brilliant - the ecomomy is great, plus you can get them to the performance of a 1.8T without to much hassle.... And you will still get 50mpg and more

for me it would be the v6 4motion, i used to work with a bloke who had one imported from finland and it was lovely, liked the interior and it went well(felt about the same as a ctr) just abit thirsty and heavy, but i would guess that i would only take a few mods to bring it on par with an r32
