Settled In

Just out of curiosity I've been trying to find out what specific model my car is. I'm pretty sure it's a base (GL?) model, but not entirely sure as I don't have any of the original documentation or manuals. Also as it is an Australian delivered car info about models I can find on UK, US, and Euro sites seems to conflict with what I have.
Here's the stats:
- Made in 1993
- Alpine white, black/blue cloth interior. Unsure of original hood as it had been replaced when I got it, but I believe original interior lining was white.
- 1.8lt injected (GTI?) engine, 5 speed manual
- No optional extras (no power windows, power steering, AC). Only has a power hood.
- Has GTI style console gauges, but I'm pretty sure the last owner added those as they're not properly wired in.
- Has the 4 head light GTI-style grill.
- Has the Clipper Kit.
- Has Le Castellet wheels
- Has standard-looking Mk2 style steering wheel
- Original audio unit gone, but has both speakers and tweeters in the doors.
- Last owner probably stuck the "GTI" badge on it, but came with original "Cabriolet" badge.
Many thanks in advance!

The only true way of finding out is to apply for the manufacture certificate from VW themselves. It's not cheap but here's the link…
