I mean that has two cam pullys. A 16v golf has one then a chain driving the other shaft.
So yeah I am.

People think it's a mk3 so no golf at that age has a twin cam engine.

Twin Cam. 2 x Camshafts....irrelevant whether chain or belt driven.
People thought it was a Mk3...and there was a twin cam Mk3.

The golf 3 16v is a dohc but I wouldn't call it a twin dohc.
And iv never heard/read it being mentioned as a twin cam, only a double overhead camshaft.
