... the car has the OEM Gearbox with 6 gears. The gearbox code is FSM. I think this is the longest gearbox ever built in the VW concern.
Who have lower rpm's @ 100km/h ? :-D

Ok let's see
FSM 6th gear: 34/45 = 0.7555
Hmm the final gear (differential) is shown to be 65/22/27 looks like there
is two different gearing ratio options?
What size tires does your Polo have?
I put in the 65/27 and 34/45 into my excel file and I just stuck with the 185 60 14 I happened to have in there for tire size (stock size for my project car) and came up with 98km/h and my project car will only do 91km/h at same 1500rpm (all this is theory only though)
