What is a 1.6SR

[Sinister747]

Hi All,

I am looking into buying a 1999 Golf IV (1.6-SR). From a bit of Google research i have worked out that SR stands for a special engine type, something to do with the Inlet Manifolds, anyone have any idea what is so special?

Also on a side note, i have been trying to find out what model this golf is. It has Electric Windows, Electric Mirrors etc but it doesn't have rear headrests. This kind of fits the bill as a BASE however the base doesn't have electric windows. And it isn't a comfortline because it doesn't have the rear headrests or the central armrest.

Anybody have any idea what model it might be? All help appreciated, especially by anyone who owns a 1.6 SR

does it have velour seats?

I got a SR engine and mines a 1.6SE model.

Hope this helps

My old one was a 1.6 se with a 16sr engine with rear headrest, leccy windows and velour seats.

if that helps?
