I think it was 90bhp...if it was the same engine as the mk 2 Cavalier (A reg, so similar age). The mk 2 Golf 1.6 that replaced it was dreadfully slow by comparison; my mum hated it. It was replaced fairly soon after by a 1.6 Mk 3 cavalier. That had an appetite for cambelts, but it was a non interference engine so no serious damage done. The car that followed, a mk 3 Golf 1.8 GL, is still her favourite car. I think it only had 90bhp too, but a decent wodge of torque for its time. Kept for 6 years and replaced by a 1.6 mk 4 Golf, which had a less torquey but revvier engine. She didn’t like that much either...
