Mate, check the fuse.
If you didnt remove the fuse before you started messing with the wires, its possable you may have shorted it, causeing the fuse to blow.
I do this all the time.
Have a bag of 50 fuses from work in the back.
Just for occations like this
Cant help you with the colours though mate, Ive never
owned a Polo before, so I'll leave it for someone in the know
Good luck with it bud.

Still want to know what this wire is for people so any help would be great

Is it brown, with a red stripe?
I recon you are correct with your thinking and it is +12 Volt Ignition Wire
