What used car should I buy?

With the expansion of the Volkswagen group in the 1990s (SEAT and Skoda were aqquired), the platform used for the Polo was shared with other models. The Mk III Polo shared its platform with the Mk 2 SEAT Ibiza. The Ibiza was actually launched before the Polo, and shared essentially all its mechanicals, the dashboard and other interior components, although there were no body panels shared between the two cars. The saloon and estate versions of the Mk III Polo were actually re-badged SEAT Cordoba models, and had no body panels in common with the Polo hatchback. The SEAT Inca and VW Caddy vans were also based on this model. The VW Lupo and SEAT Arosa were also based on a shortened version of the Mk III Polo platform.
