Single wheel, I'm not sure on the ratio, I don't know what it has at the moment, revs are high at 70 so ill assume its the 5. Something and a 6speed gearbox

A "single wheel" rear end from any Mk7 should fit....a lot will depend on what ratio you want as to how "available" they are. I believe the 115 & 140 RWD came with the MT82 6sp box, one would assume you have one of those..?? A 4.27:1 is a good "all-rounder" ratio.
