    So what does it do?

    You know that vent looking thing on the opposite side of the radio to the cup holder???



    I'm guessing that it's just there to make it look symetrical and it has no function at all.

    But if anyone has any other theories, then i would like to hear them!

    Gee pretty wasteful (another cup holder would be better) IMO.

    At last I know what it is

    Infringement holder

    Seriously - it's for parking tickets and suchlike, but I certainly wouldn't be leaving one in there in plain sight - even though the Polo's immobilised, it doesn't stop someone having a red hot go at trying to steal it.

    As for a second cupholder - I suspect that another holder might foul the indicator lever when popped right out.

    I'd wondered about that as well (I dont have a polo so cant RTFM)...
    I have my RED , 3DR MKV GTI with leather in manual and I love it!

    thats exactly the reason why they didnt put one there - i was thinking of getting one of those opposite side cup holders imported from a left hand drive country - and the salesman said that whilst it was in use how was i going to indicate my lane changing intentions ..... which made a whol load of sense

    so for now the ticket and card holder will just have to remain
