The rear end is a Mk1/Mk2 golf (I don't think there was much difference) front end is MK3 with mainly Mk4 golf engines and gearboxes, but it uses a similar chassis to the Polo 6N

The Mk3 is actually a facelift of the Mk2 which came out in 93! But its mainly Mk2 and some Mk3 golf parts (chassis and drivetrain wise anyway)
I also thought they were based purley on the polo of the same generation, guess this explains the poor chassis then.

They are based on the polo, but have a slightly different chassis from what I understand, the polo is also made up of those parts

Mk3 is a mix and match between a mk3 golf and a 6n Polo,
Mk4 is a 6l Polo

I've never really been in/around a 6N Polo, but guess they are made up of Golf parts, but the Ibiza's always have better engines and specs to the Polo's
Pow, Mk4 is a 9N polo (6L is the MK4 Ibiza code )
