Engine & Gearbox / Belt or chain

October 15, 2025, 06:03:09 PM

Did all mk2 engines have belts?

I have a 1.6 CL 4+ E - it’s a very early 1986

I’ve not long had the car but looking at the engine, the cover is a metal one - just wondered if some were chain driven?

Thanks

My son is an estate agent and found the car covered in dust in a garage - it’s been parked up for 10 years has 1 previous owner and 54,000.

Loads of service history

Looks like quite an early model

New battery, fired it up and drove it home

Hopefully going for its MOT soon
