hmmmm BHP
« on: 11 June 2009, 20:52 »
just read somewhere
that the late mk3 1.6GL golf has 16v? (mine being 97')

is this correct:)
cause i know my GL left the factory with around 101bhp but wasnt sure about if it was 8v or 16v

can someone answer this for me?

if your car has 101bhp then it will be the 16v

From memory all mk3 1.6's were 8v, it was only the mk4 that got the 16v.
