mine could be a special case, as it was a RHD import, often german market cars got the changes before the UK market. although the early series 2 MK1 GTI I converted to ABF had electronic ignition as well...

if the Dizzy has a little multiplug on the side, that means it has a hall sender, which in turn means, no points.

My '81 1600 GTi has no points, tbh, I think all GTi's were electronic-ish ignition, but they retained the mechanical advance and retard mechanisims, the only 100% electronic system was on the 16v KR lump on wards.
