Mk4 (6n) polo GTi is mega rare and left hand drive only - not available in the UK
Look like this...
The Mk5 (6n2) GTi i think is the one your after, came with BBS wheels and xenons. Look like this...

Good cars mate, built well and they're pretty reliable.
Not much goes wrong on them, check the pedal box recall has been carried out as its a big bill if it goes on you.
Also the BBS wheels corrode badly, could always get refurbed but its worth checking them thoroughly.

My GFs brother has just bought a 2001 Polo gti, I really like it, would deffo have one. Had a little blast in it the other nigth and it pulls really well and seemed to handle to. They do seem a bit over priced for what they are thesedays though.
