When you want torque the VW Jetta 2.0 TDi has to be a good option, standard they do around 950k's on a tank, brought this 2012 today out of Dunedin, 30k clicks on the clock, DSG in pretty good condition. Next week is going in for a re-map to increase the bhp from 140 to 195 and increase the torque from 320 to 410NM thats before the cold air box and cleaning out the cat to get better flow. Going to leave the standard look and use it as our South Island daily transport?..shame it isnt 4WD.

Any other mod's guys you would recommend?   8)

Cool, another Mk6 in NZ. I'm guessing it's an Aussie import?

Yeah imporetd from Aussie, was damaged in the rear side but has had a very good repair and drives like new, with 30k clicks and mint interior for under 13k was a good price for a Nov 2012 car and once I've done the remap and bits should complete a cheap long distance car.

Up date, fully serviced now, remapped and cat gutted, makes a big difference to the torque is great and gives it some great pulling power right on up well over the speed limit, went for 200k ride today plenty of hills and twists, dirt roads in the rain. Average k/100 came in at 5.4/100 which is really good considering the power on tap. According to tank to empty I have 920k left, to fill this was $70 down here as we pay 1.29 a litre for diesel less my 0.26 AA discount brought it down to 1.03/liter.
So a big thumbs up from me on the VW Jetta 2.0 Tdi 2012 and just looks like a sleepy VW?.love it.

Power up from 140BHP-195BHP                  Torque  320NM-410NM which is 20NM down from a RS4 but runs on the smell of a rag forget power torque rules!!

All for under 15K, only improvement I think it needs slightly stiffer suspension and better gripping tyres?.they now spin up really easy.

For Remapping and mods we used M Developments in Queenstown, highly recommend.

Funny thing is lowering it like that would just make it un useable and ridiculous like those muppets that walk round with there jeans half way there legs and the base ball cap on backwards thinking they cool?.call me old but I live in the real world and set my own direction.  8) I have to say the air suspension on the Audi S8 is great having the lift position when it came to iron roads and dynamic mode for the more seroius driving gets my vote anyway with that lambo sound is my heaven on earth.

After a remap and a few special mod's the Jetta now gives 4.3/100 and if you can get cheap diesel then you can go further for less, not forgetting the 420NM of torque which is right where you need it. Making hills, towing and over taking a breeze.

Very Impressed!!!
