bungy 2 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 I've got the 130 PD engine in my A6 and they are really good. High 40 mpg's and that's on a big car so should be higher on the Bora. Jake bought a Diesel Bora recently.... Link to post Share on other sites

bungy 2 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Put your VCDS on it before buying just to check and make sure the mileage is genuine from your scan. Link to post Share on other sites

oldmandon 1 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 my mate had a 130 bora, was a lovely car. tried loads of times to get it off him, eventually 3rd gear and water pump failed, that was at 190k. he's now got a 115 bora, only cos he couldn't find a 130 at a good price.go for it, you won't regret it Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 I had a PD130 ibiza FR, it was a brilliant car, only reason i sold it was because it developed a fault that the dealer refused to fix on a 10 month old car and they said it would be a couple of grand if i wanted them to fix it, so i part ex'd it to their own garage for a mazda MPS as a "now youve got to fix it tw@ts" thinking back if it hadnt developed that fault i honestly think id still own it, it was brilliant, so quick and so good on fuel Link to post Share on other sites
