My "new" golf

Drove it home no probs. Its quite a hot day today and it didnt over heat (good sign). Feels nice to drive, much nicer than my other one.....

Here is a pic of the engine bay. The engine code is FN... a quick search on the site found a site Loon posted up with engine codes... but FN isnt on there... does anyone know what type of engine it has. Could possibly be a 1.8 but im not so sure

It's a 1.6L by the cyl. head.

1.8L have the top radiator hose neck between 3 & 4 cyl.

Nice looking car, looks like alot could get done to that car.

Didnt think it was a 1.8. Pulls strong but not 1.8 strong.
Just going to try and get it registered and let my sister drive it around.
Ill just keep my eye out for a 1.8 8v/16v.... surely someone will sell one, one day!

FN is the common Australian 1600.

So i'll be seeing this car around diamond creek? When you had the other mk1 all my mates would tell me they saw a golf like mine with a black bonnet all the time.
