Well, I love my parent's 2000 TDi because you can pay 28 bucks and go for around 1000km on one tank. Of course, it really depends on what you're looking for. The Jetta VR6 was the fastest and most powerful.
Well, i was thiking for overall usage- i.e. gas millage, and power.
I mean the TDI is a good choice for it but if the turbo goes it the car doesnt and the turbo is not the cheapest thing ot replace.
The turbos are very reliable, would not worry about that. The other potential hazard is the fuel pump, but again, it's a very proven technology.Originally posted by manicmechanic

Turbo replacement could probably be done for less than 600$ Canadian with the right parts.Originally posted by manicmechanic

But trust us, they're extremely reliable. There's a Diesel '94 Golf around my area with 329,000 kms (!) on the original stock engine. No problems with the engine whatsoever.
That's insane the trubo has lasted that long!
I guess that isn't too much of a worrie for me then, thanx
