Couple of things to add, the S range tend to come on wheel trims rather than alloys.

SE -- have black external door running strips and on front bumper until around 2007 -

GT SPORT has the new front end (black grill)

In my opinion, the best one to get for a good mix of fun/economy and looking up to date would be the 2.0 GT Sport TDI in either 3 or 5 doors depending on your preference.

Thanks for the help guys i didn't realise there were so many variants i think i am going for a GT Tdi Sport 5dr. I want a three door but the lads who work for me ruined my 3 series coupe getting in and out scuffing their boots on seats and the like cheers.

I Live in Durham so does anyone know any VW tuning specialists here as i want to tune it a bit dont know how but thats another thread thanks again
