the gol not being a Golf mkII or anything similar 
I know its not called a golf...
thats why i said
This is the equivalent of the golf mk2 Brazilian spec.
Its a VW gol and i believe most of them have the 1.6 carb engine fitted. Its called a GOL and THAT one in the picture is the equivalent of what here would be the MK2. They also have mk1, mk3, mk4 and mk5 there but they dont look anything like the golfs in europe, they are all GOLs. The only golfs there are very expensive, and rare, the mk3 i pictured IS a golf, but the mk3 and mk4 GOLF are the only GOLFs you can buy, there is no MK1, MK2 or MK5 like they have in europe.
