I only thought the Ecomotive now came as a 105PS 1.9TDi (116mph / 10.9s 0-60).
I thought the Sport came with a 2.0TDi 140PS (125mph / 9.3s 0-60)
The FR 2.0TDi 170PS is about 8.0s 0-60 and 133mph
Sport is a 2ltr 16v tdi.remaps lovely to stage 1 196bhp 296lb/ft and no dpf to worry about.
But you get poo bumpers, interior, seats, wheels, brakes and gadgets.

OH YEAH, the FR comes with an FR badge on the boot. The Sport doesn't. 
Only kiddin'
With all those options your Sport must have cost more new than an FR would have done.
Don't forget the brakes, sporty ratio gearbox, sporty suspension, gear knob, steering wheel, privicy glass
and the exhaust tailpipes.

my sport has sporty supension and gearbox twin exhaust but not sure about the brakes might be smaller?
gearbox in FR and sport are slightly different ratio i believe. Brakes in sport are 288mm to the FRs 312mm on front. suspension could be same, but not sure.

My FR says FR on the V5................................
My daddys bigger than your daddy............
ive had my FR at 136 and it still had some poke left!!.. maybe i shouldnt be saying that tho
People seem to all ways worry about the DPF. on this site you here of about 6 people with problems, 1000s of cars sold with dpf so you you would expect a few to go wrong. how about this then 3 year old vw Golf tdi GT 170 DSG dpf 3,220 miles, never been more than a 20 mile r ound trip most of the time just driven to the shops never had the dpf light come on,
VAG has had quite a few issues with DPF's and Pump Duse engines due to the emssions being harder to regulate with a PD injection system. Far less issues with the CR + DPF not heard of any so far...........
However there are many similar cars like yours out there that have not had issues. Forums tend to be places people gravitate to to disscus problems.
