II worked in Germany for a while for a company that had a fleet of such
vehicles.
I think you will find the engine is the same as put in the diesel
Rabbit/Golf/Jetta of the same period.
Try finding a Haynes manual  for the diesel Rabbit/Jetta as they often cover
European models as well.
I doubt it is anything exotic.   It is probably 1.6 litre, non turbo.
