Josh,

MK 2 polo for me there is a bit about it in my build diary starts here.

The MK 3 polo one is a little thicker apparently, the MK 2 one fits a treat.

Cheers Ginge

Yep, that's the one I bought

Have fitted it in place & goes under the nose cone fine

I chose that one over the Mk2 Polo one because it has a thicker core, as I still have plans to fit the Vauxhall Redtop engine after IVA .... May just save me the expense of replacing the rad as well
