Careful, there's more to fitting wheels than looking at the PCD. The 9N3 needs wheels that have a PCD of 5x100. However, there are other things that you need to check, such as the wheel offset (measured in ET) and also the centre bore, as you mentioned. If it's larger than the Polo wheels, then you can probably get spigot rings to make them fit, but if it's too small then clearly there's no hope.
You also need to check the size of the alloy (no point buying 19" wheels because they won't fit) and the tyre size if they are fitted to make sure that it won't make a mess of your speedometer. If it will, you may need to change the tyres.
