It's the 110 BHP engine, the same as in the passat (AFN). According to the ETKA, there was a PD engine introduced in 98 but being in UK its unlikely it was already there.
Specs:
I-4
1896cc
8v
110HP/81kW@4150 rpm
235 Nm@1900 rpm
VNT+ air/air intercooler
4 disk brakes
gearbox: 4 auto/ 5manual
1365 kg
top speed: 199 km/h
1000 meters in 33.1s
city/highmay/mix fuel consumption: 6.2/4/5.3 L/100km

According to the review (Le Moniteur Automobile), they were very surprised by the performance level. Very silent car. If you speak french, I can scan the article.
+:
super silence, no vibrations
very low consumption
very honest performances
inside and trunk space

-:
too much steering assist
too many costly options
shocks not stiff enough

Can anyone please tell me the specs(power,torque) for a 1998 Audi A6 1.9 TDI Saloon? Also, pros and cons of buying such a car and what to look out for.
It is an Irish car which I assume is the same as UK spec cars. I am considering changing! I could not find this info using search on this site or elsewhere.

Thanks,
Michael

2 colleagues of mine drove Audi 110s around 98/99.
The A4 Avant was quiet, but I agree with previous comments, the A6 was VERY quiet.
I now drive a 2001 Golf 110, which is much noisier.
The auto box A6 is a bit sluggish, but the manual goes OK. Most cars in the UK were "SE" spec. This comes with most toys you might want.
