Default Difference between Golf TDI PD130 and PD150?

As above, does anyone know how to differentiate between the two?

Obviously badges etc mean nothing as they can be changed.

Anyone know a sure fire way of telling which bhp it is?

the quickest way is to see where the intercooler is , on the 130 its in the drivers side of the front bumper , the 150 is mid mounted , the 150 has also got 'wood' trim inside

As per another current thread:

This discussion crops up on http://www.uk-mkivs.net weekly, badging and the optional extras get messed out with a lot, the ONLY sure way to tell is to look under the boot carpet, on the left-hand side is a sticker which will state 110kw on a PD150.

The car would have 16" Montreal Alloys, Climate Control (on a 52 plate and newer), a third rear headrest, and wood trim around the stereo, as well as a front mount intercooler.. Badging "should" be GTi (silver GT and red I) on the back, and all red TDI on the engine cover, however some of the latest PD150's actually have all silver TDI on the engine cover... Very confusing
