I've got the dab, no problems specific to this model, only ones renoun across the whole mk4 range eg. headlights condensing, rear wash jet failing etc.
Its a good little car, quite nippy for a 1.4, although sometimes I wonder why I didn't buy the FR tdi having driven that and insurance only being a bit more expensive. I've never driven the 1.4 75ps but have driven the 1.2 and the 1.4 dab is certainly a step up from that.
I'm pleased with it!
