Hey guys,
I've recently been looking at purchasing a 1.9 TDI 9N and I've seen that there is a 74kw version and a 96kw version. I am just wondering if we ever got that higher power version, possibly in the later Pacific model?
I'd also like to know if there's anything to look out for when buying.
Thanks.

Yeh I think I will do that whenever I get one.

The difference is MASSIVE so I highly recommend it. Plus you use less fuel when driving normally!

They're (Polo TDI) great little cars. maintenance is super easy (provided you have jacks and some standard tools), fuel economy is fantastic, there's now a s$#t-ton of parts for them for when you want to start modding, and when chipped, they will hold their own quite well, on a cruise day.
I actually miss my TDI. I wonder what it would be like now, if I hadn't been rear-ended by that Landcruiser.
