9N, 9N2, 9N3

Post by adm »

OK, trying to get to grips with the model numbers here,

I have a 2008 Polo, assume its a 9n3?

I'm looking for parts, suspension etc, and its always 9n or 9n2, will these fit? or is there not much available for the 9n3 yet?

e.g. came across this on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HighQuality-Coilo ... 286.c0.m14

it says polo mk6 9n, would this work on a mk7 9n3?

Thanks.

it's all the same, just yours is a facelift of mine (9n) so from 2002-present 99% of things will fit. (except front end panels that are blatently different)

9n = twin lamps on the front
9n2 = n/a over here, but is a 9n, with the twin lamps with a boot, sort of bora style
9n3 is the facelift 9n, with the single lights

It could give the Bora a run for it's money if it was done tastefully. That example looks horrid though!

Red one is ok I guess.

But lets be honest. If had both the options in the dearships here, the majority would still go for the hatch regardless of spec.... I know I definately would!

The "polo(+boot)" would be classed as 'Uncool' stood next to the hatch.
