1st Caddy

Post by Ben Smith »

Hi all,

Looking around for a caddy at the moment and noticed a huge difference in price between a tdi and an sdi. Now if anything like a golf, the sdi will be painfully slow, but! If I got an sdi to start with, how suitable would it be for a tdi swap later on? In particular thinking 140 pd from golf gttdi etc.

What conversions are best?

Many thanks

Ben

I had the same question a few weeks ago. In the end it works out cheaper to buy a tdi with a bit of bodywork needing doing than it does an sdi and do a lump swap.


I drove both and theres no comparison - the sdi is so agricultural!!
