Hi,
I have a '97 1.6 GL Polo. It starts most of the time but it does take a few seconds of turning from the starter motor to fire up. Is this likely to just be spark plugs or could it possible be a sticky starter motor?
This is my first car so I don't know much. Is there anything else it could be?
As much help as possible please.
Thanks.

giving it revs does stop the problem, think ill still replace the spark plugs.
Cheers for your help.
