Nah, you've been able to get the 140 or 170 for years now in England. It would be a brand new car though so I'd imagine any problems like that would be under warranty. Very annoying though.
New TDI engines in the 170 vag range are the CR (common rail) engines. They are much better than the older PD engines and have no issues with the DPF and also better fuel economy.

I say go for it. They are quite nippy aswell.

EDIT: with a stage 1 remap you will see about 210hp aswell. Stage 1 will not affect the car at all in terms of reliability, but will affect warranty obviously.
