Default Which TDI? 1.9 130 or 2.5 V6 155/163

One for the Europeans...

Is there really a noticeable difference between these two engines?

Obviously the V6 is going to be smoother, but is it that much quicker for being 20% less economical?

The A6 seems a big car for a 1.9 to pull, but I've read nothing but good things about that motor in various Audis, VWs and Skodas.

Buying at short notice next month. Help me plan.

I pay more attention to torque than HP when considering a diesel engine.
