water and OAT antifreeze work well.

Use 60% water, 40% G13 and add a bottle of Red Line Water Wetter. We have just built a 2L 16v into a Golf 2 that lives in Mallorca and on test drives around the Derbyshire Dales I felt it was a little warm bearing in mind where it is going. We thinned the antifreeze level down to 60/40, added some WW and saw an 8 ish degrees C drop. Evans Waterless coolant is also worth looking at.
