100C in those ambient temps is good for a VR! Don't think you have anything significantly wrong there. Golfs have bigger engine bays so run cooler.

I'd be concerned if it's sitting at 100 deg while you're driving along at ~50+, but if you're talking about round town and slower driving then yeah, that's not unusual.

Yep nothing to worry about there, mine will hit 110 in traffic on a hot day.

 

That usually means the fan is only operating at one stage...

I've still got both speeds, it doesn't go any higher than that, it only hits 110 then drops again.
