I know lots about them, but I'd never own one - possibly a small 1.0 one for the shopping run.

Lifeless, slow, noisy, not that reliable, look shite when modified. Nah I'd avoid it, get a mk2 Golf / Corrado if you're looking into VW's.

Depending on if it is rusty or not (seals especially) I would go for the swap.

Only a mk2 golf would cut it for me, so I'd say no.

Only polos i'd have are the new 20v ones or the G40. 6n2s are slow

As Tom said, Mk2 Golf or Corrado only. Only time of even consider a Polo was it it was a G40!

That shape polo is shit. Only prefer 2000 or newer ones.
