Im running GM coolant in mine which is red but im sure it wouldnt matter on that age of engine what colour coolant is used. others might know different though lol

It would have been blue, but anything will be fine. All my cars run the new pink stuff fine as I can get it free from a dealer technician I know.

That includes my 16XE, P reg Golf & my F reg Nova 1.2 as of next week.
