Newbie 1999 1.0 6N Polo Questions

Hi

I've recently bought a 6N Polo (1999 1.0).

The service inspection light is on, so I'm going to get a full service done.

The car has done just over 80,000 miles but there is no record of the cambelt being changed. Am I best getting this done? Someone told me I should get the tensioner and waterpump replaced at the same time, is this worth doing? How much should I be paying for the cambelt change?

Will the seats from a 6N2 GTi (or any other 6N2) bolt straight in? Will the wheels from a 6N2 fit the car?

Thanks in advance

Hi

Thanks, I'll hopefully be getting a 6n2 GTi interior into it at some point then. Might try putting the 6n2 rear lights on it too.

Will put some photos up soon.

change the cam belt or at least check it. Congrats on the polo :)
