Hi, I've been looking for a T25 high top and have seen a few over the past week. I'm going to see another one tomorrow and it is listed as a VW T25 (model Transporter 112), the others I have seen were transporter 78ps.

What is the difference between the two and is one better than the other? Is there anything I need to be aware of as regards to the 112? Things that are prone to go wrong? etc


Any help would be much appreciated.
Apologies if this is the wrong section I've posted in.

Thanks.

I'm sure a knowledgeable wizard will be along shortly - and answer this fully.
My van is a 1915cc DG coded engine which is (according to the Registration Document) a '78ps'. I gather that relates to the power output, and my type of engine was also available in a smaller size too. As for 112....? No idea, but hazard a guess it'll use more fuel than mine?!

112= the bhp, so should be a 2.1dj engine. Best of the WBX engines, has injection instead of carb.

it will go up banks quicker....especially when loaded with camping gear.

That's great, thanks for clearing that up.

The engine is a 2.1 and was replaced 3 years ago by the engine shop.
