Thank for the replies - appreciate the advice!

I'm looking at picking up a 2.5tdi (otherwise know as a 300tdi?) around 2002 model with no more than 100k on it. Am I correct in thinking the 2.5ltr is ...

Thanks for the replies all - I will agree this does seem like a lot to be replaced on a 100k motor, albeit a starter motor, egr, thermostat, and UJ's are all fairly re-occuring topics accross puma own ...
