Firstly, you definately wont regret the money spent on one! Can get a 08 plate with under 25k miles for less than 8 grand now, and theyre only group 8 insurance!
mapped as far as i know is around 165bhp mark, im not sure on the new torque figured. As for build quality, ive had mine since June 2009, and never had a single thing go wrong on it, no rattaling, it feels physcially very sturdy, when you shut the door, you know its shut type thing! as for driving, its a dream, literally! gear box is very good, and it just pulls and pulls and pulls! motorway driving, when i go back to cornwall, its 300 miles each way, and doing 70 #cough# 85/90 in 6th gear, get an average about 56/57 mpg, and does it in just a tad over half a tank. seriously recommend them! Ive known a number of people own the FR / cupras, al in TDi and never heard a bad word really tbh!
So if that doesnt sell it to ya, dont know what would haha!
