The person writing the invoice must of wrote it down wrong as it definantly says adh on the invoice buy as you say a gt box is probably what's on there thanks rae. What's the difference between this ahd box an 8p box and an atv is it just the ratios with the atv having the longest ratios of the three?? What clutch am I looking at for this one aswell is it the 190mm one the same as all other mk3 polo's ??

There's not much difference in the gear ratios, it's the diff ratio that gives a GT (AHD) 'box away. It really is quite short and partly what makes a GT real fun to drive. 8P and ATV boxes are fairly long legged, 70mph is just over 3k rpm in 5th IIRC? In a GT it's nearer 4k rpm.
