Welcome and please be very wary to call your's an MK1 specially on a Enthuasists site.

Here's some reading:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Golf_Mk1
The first Golf (VW internal designation Typ 17) began production in 1974, although it was marketed in the United States and Canada from 1975 to 1984 as the Volkswagen Rabbit and in Mexico as the Volkswagen Caribe. *Snip*

The car changed little before being replaced (in Europe) by the Mark 2 version in 1984
From 1984 to 2009, Volkswagen of South Africa manufactured two variants of the Mk1 Golf, the five-door Citi Golf and the Volkswagen Caddy pickup
