My understanding is that all mk2 autos were 1800

The early models were 1588 as mine is - 82 build year.

Hi.
Mine is a 1982 auto and it’s definitely a 1.6

We should get these rare motors together for a shoot, they all seem to be Diamond Silver for some reason... Gladys is an 82 Auto also.

Not too far away - Spalding Lincolnshire. According to Howmanyleft.com there are 2 x 1.6 GL Auto's and 1 x 1.8 Gl Auto left on the road...

i wouldnt fully trust that how many are left, it all depends what the person put on the v5 when it was originally registered. a lazy person probably would only put scirocco
