Hi there,

I have recently borught a VW polo to replace my Mk2 Golf 1.6 Driver. I have a question for you:

What is the difference between a VW Polo 6N and a VW Polo 9N?

Sorry if it is a really dumb question, but I'm not all too familiar on the polo, all my time and effort had gone onto researching the Golf.

Thanks for your time.

Lisa :lol:

Hi and welcome!

The 6N is the previous generation Polo (and the 6N2 being the 'facelift' model with different lights etc). I *think* the 6N went up to a V reg and the 6N2 went up to the 51 plate, not 100% sure.

The 9N is the new shape Polo that's still being made and is the one with the round lights at the front and the rattles! :lol:

Scorpio says it all really, but I still wanted to say hello.

Hello!

Hello there! :D

Thank you all for replying. I'm picking up my polo tomorrow, its an R-reg, 1.4 8v in Platimum Silver. Therefore for what you guys are saying, I'm assuming its a 6N.

Thanks for all the welcomes too. I can see that I'll be using this forum a lot in the near future for lots of advice. I apologise again if it was a really silly question, but I'm in the process of learning, and have already seen something I wanna get for the interior of my 6N polo 8)

Lisa.

There are no silly questions!

A while back I wouldn't have known either.
