have the spark plugs, HT leads, rotor and distrubutor cab been changed recently? might be worth looking into them!

check in the distributor for any dirt or oil or moisture, plus any cracks. a previous polo of mine had a leaky gasket which meant a little oil went into the dizzy cap which caused it to missfire!

Hope thats of some help!
