    Aaron, if you think the base 1.4 is slow, come drive my mk4 golf with the 1.6! Truthfully though, it does almost feel identical regarding performance so take a jump up to the 77TSI, you won't regret it

    It seems the 77TSI is near impossible to find without ordering and waiting a long long time. There are 6 manual 77TSI's listed on Carsales at the moment, 5 in Victoria, 1 in the colour I want. There is two DSG's in NSW, neither in the right colour and one is demo only and not for sale. Still might be worth a drive to see how it runs.

    Bottom line, the TDI is quite fun to drive and it's buckets of torque make it go pretty well in my test drive. It has pretty much everything I want, so pending final negotiations I might just buy this one and Join the Diesel Club... again... again

    Yeah, i love the instant, low down torque of a diesel. Maybe ring some dealers because it seems like there is about to be an influx of polos soon, 22 or so delivered in Melb last week, another 92 GTIs and 3 doors on the Tombarra, due in 4 or so weeks and another 54 on the Morning Carol due in Melb 25 may. I'm sure there will be some 5 door non-gti's picked up in Port Elizabeth on the tombarra too....
