By the way heres some independant numbers for the 1986 polo C (with a 1043cc hydraulic head engine and 4 speed box) Taken from VW motoring Dated Feb 1986 (kindly donated to me by optima21)
0-60 18.4 seconds, (18.5 is the official figure) load of two persons (driver and passenger) and 3/4 tank of fuel. So loose a person and some fuel and the car instanly becomes 100Kg or about 15% lighter. So shave 15% off your 0-60 time and your into the mid 15s then. (although it doesnt quite work like that)
