    Would it be a Volkswagen of sorts? I'm thinking Golf convertable...
    I know VW had both engine layouts in various cars, not sure if any specific one model had both though.

    For sure. There was a mint one on Carzone up to a few weeks ago. One I had the pleasure of driving! Pity I didn't have the cash to buy it.

    Edit: - that's the one!! It's back up I see.
