    1.8 tfsi/2.0 tfsi/2.0 tdi?

    The 2.0T should easily be within your 7k budget, I bought mine 4 years ago and it was only 9k.

    New Front Rubber Needed

    These tyre ratings are crap. Eagle F1A2s are very good, can't go wrong.

    BG44K fuel additive

    You can usually get it for £15 off eBay. I've used it 3 times I think in the last 60k, no appreciable difference to be honest, wouldn't get too excited.

    BG44K fuel additive

    Bg44k is for petrol engines isn't it? I though bg244 was for diesels.

    Hid what brand

    Don't bother: 1) it looks pikey 2) HIDs in reflector lenses dazzle oncoming drivers 3) they'll blow your front wiper motor

    Has somebody innstalled a cold air intake on 1.6 FSI?

    Why are people bothering with an air intake on a 1.6? The gains will be laughable.

    2.0 TDI 170 - Risky for low miles?

    Read his post, although he does 1k a month he says its short journeys but would be willing to "take it for a blast" now and again. This is not what diesels are for.

    2.0 TDI 170 - Risky for low miles?

    Utterly pointless to get the TDI for that kind of mileage. The 2.0T is far better, it'd only be a few quid a month more in fuel. And yes there are plenty of problems with DPFs if you do short journeys.

    I'm lazy, national tyres oil service for £40 does me nicely between each proper service.
